Predator proofing a chicken tractor.

What gauge and size 'weldmesh' are you using?

14ga 2x4 welded wire fencing, trim it down leaving some wires sticking out and use those to wrap around bottom of tractor wall wire for 'hinges'.

I like the idea of framing aprons with wood and hinging too.

Pics of your tractor might help with ideas.

It's 16ga 1x1 wire.

I'll be totally redesigning for the new build so the new one wont look anything like the old one. The old one is currently not easy to access as we have had so much rain that the pathway down to it is a slippy mess and since I broke my leg a couple of years ago slipping in mud I'm not going down there at the moment. My girls are currently in their winter house and run up by our house.
