migsy Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 My 22 week old Light Sussex squeezed through the Omlet netting today! It was quite funny as she was desperate to get some corn but really, I didn't think they were supposed to be able to get through the holes.

chicken bark Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 The tighter it is the less they can squeeze through it. But if it is something really tempting on the other side they seem to take the whole fence with them! Mine don't squeeze through any more - maybe it's because mine is electrified?

Redwing Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Double check its not upside down There should be two sizes of holes in the netting The small holes should be at the bottom It sounds obvious but is easy to get wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 I did that very thing when I first put mine up . I put rigid black plastic garden netting along the bottom half of mine to stop the little varmints nibbling at the edges of my lawn. Works brilliantly and is almost invisible .

migsy Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 It is not upside down but she did get through the bigger hole. She is a character! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
