Hi ya - found some fairly reasonably priced wire various sizes and guages on ebay . For example 1/2" x 1/2" 36" x 30M for 32.00 plus 12.00 p & p. Just thought it may be useful for some of you.

Well have looked on ebay and come up with welded wire mesh 1/2" x 1/2" x 36" x 30m long 19 guage. 32.00 plus 12.00 p & p. We only have to wire one side, so hopefully that will keep Mr and Mrs Fox out. Went out on Saturday and bought a feeder and drinker, plus some red mite powder ...

Thanks everyone, will have a look on ebay and also on some web sites.
Wendy, dont think even my OH can 'service' all the perimiter as we have nearly five acres :wink: . Would like to see him try though LOL.

I have none at the moment, but will have 8 ex battery hens at the end of this month

Hi ya - Has anyone any idea where and what is the best fox proof wire to put on a chicken run? Am having 8 battery hens at the end of this month and would hate to see them end up as Mr/Mrs Fox's dinner. Thanks.
