Chicken Netting Advantages

chicken wire mesh woven structure vs chain link mesh structure

Our chicken wire, whether it is straight twist woven or anti-twist woven, two wires adjacent to each other twist 4-5 times. This netting has stronger and more stable woven structure than the general wire fence (such as chain link fence). Thus, if a place is cut off, will not lead to the entire chicken mesh structure destroyed. However, In chain link fence, two adjacent wires are twist once. If any point of the chain link fence was cut off, the adjacent points will destroyed. And this will lead to the scrapping of the entire chain link fence structure. Using the same diameter and the same material wire, we can woven more durable and stronger chicken netting than chain link fence cages.

Gorgeous chicken wire ribbon

I use golden chicken wire ribbon to make a wrath for home in Christmas. The golden color goes well with little twigs. I put it on the doorknob. Not surprisingly, all of my visitors appreciate it very much.

Keep birds from my blueberries

Chicken wire fencing with 1/2 inch opening to replace the plastic bird netting I've erected on the frame over my blueberries. Large mesh didn't stop smaller birds from getting to the berries. The small opening holes fencing done.
