Poor chickens! They have lived for so long with a sub-par fence, a rotting old piece of chicken wire that is folded over and flimsy. This week, we decided to build our beautiful chickens a whole new fence, complete with a shaded area for the hottest days of summer.
First, we slammed in metal fence posts to define the new border. Then, we attached the fencing to the posts using zip ties. We used pea fencing with approximately 2” holes, which is much sturdier than the chicken wire. Last, we moved the entrance gate so that the little chickens can have some shade. We think they’re really enjoying the addition of approximately two hundred square feet of space.
