BridieLou Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hiya. Our chooks currently have free range of the garden, but we'd like to restrict their access a bit, to reduce the poo on the patio..! I really like the look of the Omlet fencing, but at £100 (plus P&P) for 20 metres it's pretty pricey. Does anyone know of any alternatives? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamrhind Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I put something up using chicken wire - see http://club.omlet.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=100878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chooksRCute Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I got mine second hand off eBay but that aside the idea is to contain the chickens not be predator proof...so why not just use chicken wire or a plastic alternative & bamboo canes?

Cat tails Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I use bird wire. Which is 50 cm high. High enough to keep the chooks in, low enough to step over. It looks a bit like chicken wire, but with squares of about 2 by 2 cm. I can cut it with scissors and I keep it up with bamboo poles.
