Chicken Fencing for the Backyard Chicken Keeper and the Professional Farmer
We are the Australian specialist in all things to do with chicken fencing. Our chicken fencing is all imported from Germany, and we offer an unrivaled number of product options – everything from “Heavy Duty” chicken fencing for the professional free-range chicken farmer to lighter grade “Standard” chicken fencing for the urban hobby block.
How does chicken fencing stop predators?
Chicken fencing is made from polyurethane with metal filaments running through the horizontal strands (apart from the bottom baseline). The net is mounted on PVC posts. To โchargeโ the chicken fence, an energiser is connected to the net and to the ground via an earth stake. This forms an open circuit. When a predator touches the chicken fence, they close the circuit and receive an electric shock. This shock frightens the predator away, as they have no understanding of what just happened.
Poultry Fencing – Selected Products
Electric Poultry Fencing โ 50m
When it comes to chicken fencing, we are Australiaโs leading specialist importer. Consequently, we have an unrivaled set of options to ensure that your chicken fence suits your personal requirements.
In order to serve you better, we have three different models of poultry fencing. Please note that all three models use exactly the same netting material โ the difference is entirely in the height and thickness of the posts. The three different options we stock are:
- Standard โ 110 cm tall posts, 13mm post thickness, 7mm thick double prong.
- Tall โ 120 cm tall posts, 13mm post thickness, 7mm double prong.
- Heavy โ 120 cm tall posts, 19mm post thickness, 8mm double prong.
The heavy-duty chicken fence is perfect for professional chicken businesses or if you live on hard ground and need a sturdy post that can go into the ground without bending. Click on the link below to buy now or investigate your other options.
Electric Chicken Fencing โ 25m
If you do not need 50m of chicken fencing, you may find that 25m will be sufficient. Our 25m roll of chicken fencing is the perfect size for an urban backyard or small holding to protect a flock of a dozen or so birds.
Like all our poultry fencing, the 25m roll is made in Germany. This roll measures 120 cm tall and has a 7mm thick steel prong on the bottom of the post. Unfortunately, there is no heavy-duty post option as it is unavailable. However, for most urban environments where the chicken fence is used on grass or similar surfaces, the 7mm steel post is more than sufficient.
