What is poultry netting?
An electrifiable, prefabricated,
portable fence. It arrives at your door as
a complete roll
(see photo at left)
with the
posts already built into the fence’s mesh.
A standard roll (164 ft) inclusive of
posts weighs only 23 lbs.
White vertical plastic strings are
“welded” to black and white electrifiable
horizontal strings. They are supported by
.60" diameter white plastic PVC posts—
which are spaced throughout the netting.
Each post has a small, steel spike that’s
inserted into the ground for support.
How does netting work?
The horizontals (except for the bottom
one which rests on the grass) are
energized by a fence energizer. When
the birds (and predators on the outside)
touch it they receive a shock from the
very brief pulse—and learn to avoid it.
The close spacing of the verticals and
horizontals (2"x 3" at bird height) also
creates a physical and visual barrier to
birds and their predators.
How proven is it?
Netting has been widely used in the US
and Europe for 25 years. Producers now
rely upon it.
How reliable is it?
Very reliable for adult birds that don’t
fly—if it’s adequately electrified
(at least
3000 volts).
(See website for fence information
on testing fences.)
Why is it so popular?
• Because it arrives via UPS/FedEx/
SpeeDee at your door as a complete,
preassembled fence.
All line posts (not
corner posts) are prefitted into each roll.
• Because it
keeps in
adult poultry.
• Because it
keeps out
4-footed
predators
like dogs, coyotes, raccoons,
skunks, foxes, opossums and bear.
• Much easier and faster
than other fences
to install, adjust, relocate and remove.
Takes less than 10 minutes to install a
roll. Can be done alone but handling the
longer rolls is easier with 2 people.
• It’s flexible.
Unlike permanent fences
netting is easy to take around corners
and curves—and over dips and hills.
• No tools are needed.
Plastic step-in posts
are enough support for corners and
ends. Only hand-tension is needed—
which is explains why it
adapts easily
to curves, hills and corners.
• It endures.
A roll will last 10 seasons if
used with care. Its chief “enemies” are
lawn mowers and ice/heavy snowfalls.
Both netting and energizer are light weight…
so they’re easy to carry from place to place.
Customer Review…
PoultryNet
I let my chickens free range, but they get on
my porch and make a mess. This is perfect.
Took my wife and
I
about 10 minutes to set up.
They need to make a gate.
