Chicken wire, or poultry netting, is a mesh of wire commonly used
to fence in fowl, such as chickens, in a run or coop. It is made of
thin, flexible, galvanized steel wire with hexagonal gaps.
Available in 1 inch (about 2.5 cm) diameter, 2 inch (about 5 cm)
and 1/2 inch (about 1.3 cm), chicken wire is available in various
gauges--usually 19 gauge (about 1 mm wire) to 22 gauge (about 0.7
mm wire).
Chicken wire is occasionally used to build inexpensive cages for
small animals (or to protect plants and property from animals)
though the thinness and zinc content of galvanized wire may be
inappropriate for animals prone to gnawing and will not keep out
predators.
We offer the following hole sizes:
50mm hole, 25mm hole: Used for chicken enclosures and for general
fencing.
40mm hole (1.4mm thick wire): Our heavy weight 40mm netting is
suitable for fox protection.
