Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

A: One roll of 48 in. x 25 ft. galvanized steel chicken wire with 1 in. hexagonal mesh. Posts and staples are sold separately.
Q: How far will one roll go?
A: A single roll covers up to 25 linear feet; overlap rolls a few inches to continue a longer run.
Q: How is it installed?
A: Unroll the wire, attach it to U-posts or stakes with staples or ties, and pull it taut section by section.
Q: Will it rust?
A: The steel wire is galvanized for corrosion resistance in outdoor conditions.
Q: Is it strong enough to keep out predators?
A: Chicken wire contains poultry and defines garden boundaries, but it is not designed to stop determined predators; welded wire is a better choice for that.
Q: What posts should I use?
A: Steel U-posts around 60 in. tall work well for a 48 in. fence height, typically spaced 4-6 ft. apart.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
This 48 in. x 25 ft. hex netting is the classic choice for chicken runs, seasonal garden fencing and keeping rabbits out of beds. Stretch it between 60 in. U-posts every 4-6 ft., and bury the bottom edge a few inches or pin it to the ground to stop digging. If you need predator protection rather than containment, move up to 14-gauge welded utility fence instead of light hex wire.
Cut wire ends are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection when cutting and handling galvanized wire netting.
