Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Hexagonal chicken wire is the economical choice for poultry, garden protection and light containment where flexibility matters more than strength; the 60-inch height lets you build taller runs without stacking rolls. Because hex netting is flexible, keep post spacing tight and pull the wire snug as you attach it to avoid sagging. For dogs or other strong animals, choose a heavier welded wire instead.

Wire edges and cut ends are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection when cutting and installing chicken wire.
