I know you're not talking to me, but chicken wire, ironically, is awful for coops since chickens are the only animals that CAN'T get through it. Raptors, coon's, dogs, coyotes, foxes bobcats etc can go right through chicken wire like a hot knife through butter.

I don't know about infamous!

I used 1/2 inch hardware cloth that is black PVC coated. I just stapled it to the wood and it worked out ok. I couldn't find an easy way to stretch it to make it super taught, it's tight but not as tight as I'd like it to be.

I bought it from the coop place named after a state but I'm sure it could be found cheaper elsewhere. Ended up using about 70% of the 4' x 100' roll.
