I have two lots of this fencing which I use separately or connect together to make a larger area. I find it easy to move, the gate is very useful and the chickens rarely fly over. However the wild rabbits have wrecked it this summer and chewed through it in many places. I have managed to chop the bottom few squares off and shorten the poles so it is still plenty useable but ultimately I’m going to have to use electric fencing to keep the chickens contained. I think it’s a great product but maybe not for more rural settings.

Should have clips and guide wires included
Sherrie,
Ohio,
I purchased 5 extra fence poles thinking clips and guide wire would be included but it’s not!
You should at least offer those for a few extra dollars more or have those available to buy separately…

Love the fence, but chickens fly over
Jeremy,
The fence is great quality and easy to set up. Unfortunately my chickens can be very motivated to fly over. Well they fly on top of the fence and roost first, and then drop to the other side. Their wings are clipped. Save by a new fence, I'm not sure what to do.

Hi Jeremy,
Thank you very much for taking the time to write us a review about your fencing.
We are sorry to read about your situation.
Our current fencing is already taller than most other types, at 1m25. If necessary, you can always adjust the poles of the fence to ensure that the netting remains tight and secure at all times.
Usually, wing clipping is the most effective method indeed to prevent chickens to fly away from the fencing.
Some breeds might be able to fly higher and better, however this would normally be the case of wilder breeds, unlike our domesticated chickens that are bred to lay eggs.
If you wish, don't hesitate to contact us by email or by phone if you have any further request.
Best Regards,
Clemence

great but -
Liz,
If your hands are not nimble, you may need help to assemble these poles. The buttons are really tricky. Due to lockdown I had to wait until I could catch someone else to do it for me. The extra poles have proved their worth though. Also, I have plans to give them an afterlife as supports for pea netting.
