What type of material for my new aviary?

[Chicken0Boy]

I am making some plans to build my new 10x35x8 avairy. I have everything but material for the top, and keep in mind I am looking to spend $0-$100 on netting/wire for the top. So, my only question is what type of netting/wire should I buy for the top of the aviary?

Thansk you guys!

I just paid around $98 for a piece of netting from Pacific Netting for a 30x30 piece of their best and strongest netting. Brad legg turned me on to them and they are super helpful

I found Pacific Netting. This is what I came up with; I can't decide on what to buy though. Can some one help me pick the stongest netting on here the is Hawk, Owl, etc. resistant for a 10x35x8 avairy?

When you call them, they will help you decide which one to get. I got the heavy duty stuff due to the amouint of snow We get up here in Indiana. If I remember right the salesman told me that Brad went with one step down from the heaviest type cause he hets less snow in Kansas. But I would give them a call.

There was a discussion about netting on this thread. Just it out.

I found so more netting! Would this work on keeping most predators out?

you could use that too, I just prefer the knotted stuff.

Out of both nettings which would be best on protecting from predators?
