In the Brooder
Seems like everyone will say I over-reacted, but I feel terrified of predators getting to my beautiful hens. So I rolled out 1/2” galvanized hardware cloth under my new run. I put in pea gravel and straw thinking the depth would protect their feet from the wire. But they scratch and peck down into the wire.
I don’t see any damage to feet or beaks, but am worried that there may be over time.
I could buy a couple of rolls of sod, but it has a plastic netting in It...
topsoil wouldn’t likely tamp down enough.
Advice? Please!
