Chirping
I am so upset right now, I'm posting this here as well as under "predators." I have a large 6'x15' walk in chicken run from Omlet. A HAWK has been able to kill two of our beloved satin bantam chickens through the fencing. I am devastated.
Clearly 1/2" or 1/4" hardware cloth is standard for chicken runs for a reason. Omlet's runs are basically chicken and dog proof. Otherwise anything else can reach in and KILL YOUR CHICKENS. Including grounded HAWK. Waste of $1000 and will need to be replaced. If you DO own this run I recommend zip tying 1/2" hardware cloth to the outside of your run ASAP and reaching out to the company to complain.
