netting to protect my birds

Sounds like you might need to reconfigure your housing to be predator proof day and night. You've had a mink get into housing during the day?
When y ou say "out" does that mean free range, or....?


Most folks do order it as the amount/roll size needed is rarely available in a local store.

no they weren’t attacked in their house, they were attacked outside their house.

Hi everyone! i’m getting some hardware cloth to try and keep the predators out of my duck and chicken house… does plastic chicken wire netting work to keep out mink, weasels and other pests? it’s the only one my store has here, and the nearest town with better materials is 4 hours away.

No it will not.

is this what you mean? i’ll have to have it ordered in unfortunately but not sure what to do till then

No..don't get the 1/4 inch. Get the 1/2 inch.
