PoultryNet® Plus 12/48/3 Electric Netting

PoultryNet Plus has posts every 6.8 ft (vs. 10 ft for standard PoultryNet). More posts means less sag and a more versatile fence.

It's an 48 in. electrifiable prefabricated fence. It arrives at your door as a complete roll with the posts already built into the mesh/fence.

White vertical plastic strings are "welded" to black and white electro-plastic horizontal strings. They are supported by .6 inch diameter white plastic PVC posts--which are spaced throughout the netting. Each post has a small, steel spike that is to be inserted into the ground for support.

Just attach a fence energizer and it's ready to keep poultry in and their predators out. One roll (100 ft) weighs only 23 lbs.

Installation

Precautions

Note: Not effective with baby chicks that are small enough to crawl through the net openings and therefore are not deterred by the electric shock.

This is a pain barrier, not a physical barrier. If animals are scared or starved it will not keep them in. The first time you put the animals in the net, you should be available to watch them for a while. That way if one were to get into the fence and get caught, you can turn the power off and get them loose.

This net will need extra supports posts. Use them at the corners and ends for sure. Extra posts may be needed elsewhere as well.

Dry conditions and wintertime usages—may reduce the effectiveness of electric fencing.

Dry or frozen ground many cause the NetPost spikes to bend or break if inserted with force. Pilot holes may be needed.

Troubleshooting

If the voltage drops below 3000v on the net, you need to turn off the energizer and unhook the net from the energizer. Test just the energizer by itself. If the voltage is 5000v or higher on the energizer the problem is in the net. The most common problem is that the lowest 'hot' strand has been caught around one of the metal spikes on the posts and is shorting it out. The net must be at least 2" away from anything metal (metal posts, existing fences, spikes on support posts).

On PoultryNets, the bottom hot wire can slip off of the plastic portion of the end posts down onto the metal spikes. This will cause a dead short and no energy will be on the fence. Unhook the energizer and slide the hot wire back onto the post. Hook energizer back to the net and test.

Warranty

With proper care, netting should last 5-7 years. Replacements will be prorated.

This product is very easy to install and use. Moving the fence is not difficult either. I can see it being a pain if you don't read the installation instructions. Simply following these instructions makes using the fence a breeze. I use it to keep my flock of Buff Orpington and Silkie chickens confined. It works perfectly. I'm going to order another kit soon. I see this product lasting for years.

We really like this product. It's easy to move, easy to install. We originally bought a single 100 ft and two 50 ft rolls. We liked them so much we bought two more 50 footers. I have to say we are so impressed with Premier's customer service. Our original order was missing the voltage tester. I called and Gordon got the tester out to me right away. In our 2nd order we ordered two 50 ft rolls and a gate. When the shipment came the 2nd 50 ft roll was not included. I called and spoke to Sara I think. Whoever it was did not question me other than to make sure I paid for 2 rolls. She sent out the 2nd 50 ft roll immediately and we received it in a couple days. I really appreciate that we didn't have to jump through hoops to prove we didn't receive what we paid for...they just worked hard to satisfy their customers. I will recommend this company to everyone I know who is interested in movable fencing.

This is the best poultry fence compared to the other brands or model. Its 100ft easy to carry and roll. Spikes are stronger than kencove 164 ft fence. Doesnt sag or bow much when wind is gusty.

Earlier i bought 2 kencove 164ft fence. Eash poles are spaced 12 ft. I had to buy additional poles to hold the fence from sagging. Almost 20 poles i had to buy. Each cost 2 bucks a piece.

Ober all i would recommend buying this model. Add atleast 3 more 100ft fence if you have more than 100 chickens. From my experience if you enclose in one 100ft fence. All the grass is destroyed so fast. Give them more room so that grass gets room to recober faster.

I purchased the 100 ft roll of Poultry Net Plus. I had previously purchased the 164 ft roll and found it so long that it was hard to work with. The 100 ft is the perfect length. It is long enough that it is useful, but not so long that it is challenging to keep untangled. It has kept my goats in and predators out. It is so easy to move that I plan on buying more as my herd grows.

I bought 200' of the Poultry Net to keep our chickens out of a newly planted vineyard. Okay, it works for that quite well. My only gripe with the Poultry Net is that it is not nearly as good as the PermaNet I use as the chickens' primary fence. The posts are lighter (as described) and bendier so it is almost impossible to get the fence to not sag. This is even with the "Plus" upgrade with closer spacing on the posts. Also the double spikes are not nearly as heavy duty as on the PermaNet. The netting itself seems excellent quality (I got the green which does have a white conductor in it for visibility). But it is $0.45/foot cheaper. So IF you have a need for a lightweight fence and IF you want to go on a budget then the PoultryNet will work. Otherwise shell out the extra bucks for the PermaNet, it's a much better product.

I had the regular poultry netting before and was frustrated with putting it up and getting it not to sag. This was SO easy to put up. Double spike posts went in to our rocky ground easily and are staying up and straight, no sagging! Will continue to replace our regular poultry net with this!

Little by little I am replacing my poultry netting with this product. At first I did not care for the flexible posts, but in use I find them essential, i.e. easy to bend and access enclosure. Pro: Both posts and netting are green, blends well with rural landscape; the steel step in posts seem almost indestructible; and lightweight / easy to reposition in order to cut the grass and rotate stock. Con: more expensive compared to other net fencing on the market.

I have three sections of the double spike Poultry Net Plus. Even with the closer post spacing, I have found that I need to put additional wire support posts between the posts in the netting to keep the lower wires from shorting out on uneven ground. I use a fiberglass post from a local store where I need the additional height to clear humps and rocks. I also have a steel rod and a big hammer to drill "starter holes" for the posts in places where the ground is too hard to step in the posts - lots of rocks in this area. Overall, its much easier to put up and move than a "real" fence, especially in this rocky area.

The fence came quick and the price was right. It was about the best overall deal on poultry fencing I found. I got the plus,with closer post which I think works better on ground that slopes like mine does. It does go up quickly but there is some time for weed eating. Even with a close shave on the grass, there was still arching because of the proximity of the second wire ,which is the hot one, to the grounp.

This fence was very easy to set up and did not sag or snag. I was going to wait until my husband got home from work to do it for me, but was so excited about having it done, that I did it myself in just very little time. The YouTube video was very helpful, which I watched twice before going out to do it. I could see without that instruction, if you did it another way instead of grasping poles and throwing them out, you could get a tangled mess.

Ive only had chickens for a couple months and was able to use my neighbors fence till he got his turkeys in. It was time to buy my own and since his worked so great I ordered the same one. I am thrilled at the purchase, very high quality, easy to setup, goes into the ground very easy but stays very secure, and almost zero sag. I even had to move a post a couple slots over and found that VERY easy.

Works real good for my chickens and calves.
I mow a strip with my lawn mower. Stretch out the fence then go back and step the posts in.
Easy enough my 8 and 7 year old sons can step the posts in and they stay upright protecting the animals from predators, and allows us to control where the animals graze.

This fencing is fantastic. I move by small flock of chickens around my yard, so the mobility of this fence is perfect. It is a little tricky at first to get it set up without sag if you're putting it in any design other than a straight line - but once you get the hang of it, you can move it very quickly. I would highly recommend this product!!

We Installed 400 feet of Poultry netting plus very easily! Maybe overkill for our operation but well worth the investment in my book. One issue is that the very bottom electrified strand end loop on the post can slip down and ground itself out on the metal feet of the post. After that it’s a winner!

Very easy to work with since there is not a lot of fencing between each post. Easy to put in stakes/take them out but they are well anchored in the ground. My auracanas, australorps, and orpingtons (4 months old) fly over quite easily but this has more to do with the birds and where I put them rather than a deficiency of the fence.

The fence was easy to install. I bought it for my Swedish Flower Hens. It arrived quickly, just before the strawberry patch awoke from its winter slumber and my seedlings needed to be moved to the garden. I must admit that while I love for my chickens to free range, I am more relaxed mow that they'ree fenced in and not wandering too close to the road. The "girls" are content, as well, with plenty of room in their yard!

The PoultryNet fence was purchased to establish Bachelor Quarters for the excess roosters as they grew to broiler size. I am very pleased with the fence, but even more pleased with the phone assistance that was provided even though it was known that I would be making the purchase online. The fact that I was a newbie to raising chickens encouraged the phone tech to suggest the Battery Energizer Kit which was a lifesaver since I understand precious little about electricity.

The only "improvement" I would suggest is to explain the little metal clips and how to handle them to other newbies. You would not believe how much time I spent puzzling over the fact that I could not begin to unroll the fence since that clip was in the way :)

This makes a nice safe 'yard' for my hens outside their coop when they are not free ranging. It's small enough to handle alone and was fairly simple to set up with the right equipment. The hens can fly over it, but once they found they couldn't return, they decided not to venture out much. I was very appreciative of the help and service provided by Premier. Thank you.

I had the standard netting, 168', with solar battery, protecting chickens. However, I had two problems: hard for one woman to hold all that fence when moving, and crows had figured out how to get my eggs and had a field day. Finally discovered to put bird netting on top of the fence poles which kept crows out, but it was messy, and the poles fell over with time, etc. Finally have settled on this solution: with the 50'of fencing, it's very easy to move, and very easy to keep bird netting over (I cut a piece so it fits the 7x21' square with a foot overlap all around, and lined edges with duct tape so it's easy to handle). It's less space, but hens never seemed to use all that space in the 168' anyways. I have 3 hens and need to move fairly often to keep grass from getting killed (about weekly), but it's so easy to move--keep grounding rod in place and just rotate around. These poles are nice and sturdy. So thanks Premier for great product!

I recently purchased 100' of the PoultryNet Plus with poles every 6.8' vs. 10 feet for the standard poultry net. Big improvement - with this netting it is much easier to keep the lowest charged line off the ground and therefore more charge on the net. I have also found that 100' is much easier to move by myself than 164'. Will definitely be using this netting for my chickens going forward. Also advise anyone using the PoultryNet to get a more powerful fence energizer - at least 2 joules because so much of the charge is lost through ground contact compared to standard electric fencing for cows, horses, etc.
