How Strong Is Chicken Wire?

Chicken wire can enclose small animals. If you keep animals such as chickens, ducks, birds, mice, or rabbits, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about, chicken wire is perfectly fine for your first choice. However, its strength prevents it from stopping larger animals, such as deer or wild boars. I

n addition, animals like foxes are also capable of tearing or chewing through the wire after perseverance, thus getting into the wire mesh. For better protection of poultry, you can choose metal wire with a thicker wire diameter so that predators will find it difficult to destroy it.

Is Chicken Wire Mesh Safe?

Everyone probably considers safety before buying chicken wire. Chicken wire is relatively thin and there is always the possibility of breakage. Once the wire becomes loose, the sharp tip can cause harm to the poultry. Therefore, Wanzhi Steel recommends that you check your chicken coop or fence regularly and maintain it promptly.

How Long Will It Last?

Some types of galvanized chicken wire will last up to 20 years in the right environment. If you want your chicken wire to last longer, you can coat it with a PVC coating. PVC coating provides stronger protection for the wire, making it last for many years without Rusting, thus extending the life of the wire.
