I would like to give my ex-bats a larger run-around space if possible.
I'd also like to be able to move it around my garden - hence the temporary
nature.
My materials are limited - I have around 20 metres of 1inch hole,
1 metre high chicken wire which I can use as a perimeter with
bamboo sticks spaced about every half-metre. I will also use
thin netting for the top. I also have tent pegs to secure the bottom
every half-metre. The ex-bats are full-grown.
I really cannot afford to be chasing chickens throughout my neighbourhood
although I do think I have them trained to come to me when I have worms
in my hands.
I have also clipped their flying feathers.
Can you envisage problems, or offer advice on how I can make the thing
more secure?
Many thanks for reading me.
