My coop and run have 1/4 inch hardware cloth completely surrounding every bit of it and a metal roof. I have 1/2 inch hardware skirting underground.
Two different neighbors lost whole flocks in the last month. They are thinking coyotes. My whole acre yard is fenced. I want to add another layer of protection so want an electric fence. The chicks will not be near this as I will run it outside if their coop. We have so many eagles and hawks, they are never out of the coop run unless I am with them so I can disable the electricity to the fence.
I am not worrying about the chicks coming into contact with this at all. I want to deter fox, raccoons and coyotes. Can you recommend a fence I can install about 6 inches outside and all the way around their run/coop?
