Eyren Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 It depends on the mesh. The gaps need to be about 1" high and 1.5-2" wide to fit the plastic hooks through - I'd have to measure mine to be sure, and I'm not going out in the dark and rain to do that!

BarbaraJ Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 i have a grub on my wire. Its 1''x1/2'' welded wire, i had to cut it to fit the hook in but its fine. Unsure my wire would hold the water one though! i have a water dispenser thingy hanging from the roof which works well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomaxsmith Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Hi Debbie, I don't expect they cause any less mess - my hens manage to spill most of their mash on the floor! They hook it out with their beaks then pick the choicest bits off the floor. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraJ Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 No its great hanging from roof. no spills. If you are willing to cut the mesh it will work with the grub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
