Single hen

Forgive what is probably a stupid question I did have my chickens free ranging all over the garden all day, but after I've seen the volume of poo and the fun they've had with all my flower pots, I think I need netting! But if I put chicken netting around my eglu, how do I access the eglu? I've ordered the chicken netting plus poles set from Omlet and just wondering how people use it... Is it easy to open up and get in and out every day?

Your story sounds the same as mine My girls had access to all of the garden and went round detroying the few flowers that I had so I got the Omlet netting.

 

I have split the garden in half so the netting goes from fence on left to shed on right.

 

I just move/open the section closest to the shed to get in and out of the "Chicken Garden". The pic shows the "gate" open. I have put a large cup hook into the side of the shed and the pole gets hooked in there for security.

Thank you for the reply and the handy picture... Hope I can figure it out.

You will be fine

 

I did cut mine as I found it easier to manage, plus I don`t need the 25m as it is right now.

 

I would say the more poles you ise the better
