YARDGARD 2 in Poultry Netting 24" x 150' — 20‑Gauge Galvanized Chicken & Rabbit Fence for Garden Protection

YARDGARD 2 Inch Poultry Netting is a 20‑gauge galvanized steel roll designed to secure poultry, small animals, and garden beds with a flexible, rust‑resistant hexagonal mesh measuring 24 inches by 150 feet.

This heavy‑duty poultry netting delivers a balance of strength, visibility, and airflow for outdoor enclosures and garden protection. The galvanized finish helps resist corrosion, while the classic twisted hexagonal pattern provides reliable containment for chickens, rabbits, and other small animals. Lightweight enough to cut and shape by hand, the roll is suitable for permanent frames or temporary barriers and doubles as plant support or DIY garden reinforcement.

How durable is this netting for year‑round outdoor use?

The netting is woven from 20‑gauge steel that’s galvanized before weaving to improve corrosion resistance. It stands up to moisture and typical weather exposure while remaining flexible enough to install on uneven terrain. Regular inspections and secure fastenings extend service life in farm and garden settings.

• 20‑gauge steel for a sturdy yet manageable weight
• Galvanized coating to help slow rust and weathering
• Twisted hexagonal weave adds tensile stability
• Designed for outdoor applications like coops and borders

What animals and garden situations is it best for?

The 2‑inch mesh is sized to keep most chickens, ducks, and rabbits contained while allowing air and light through. It’s also effective as a perimeter fence around raised beds, young trees, and compost piles to deter small wildlife. Because it’s flexible, you can shape it into cages, roll it into hoops for row covers, or staple it to frames for pens.

• Containment for chickens, ducks, and small mammals
• Garden bed borders and protection from critters
• Support for climbing plants and vine training
• Temporary or permanent enclosures and DIY cages

How easy is installation and customization?

The roll comes 24 inches high and 150 feet long, giving ample material for multiple projects from a single purchase. It’s lightweight enough to cut with wire snips and to bend by hand, yet it secures well when attached to posts, frames, or stakes. Use staples, clips, or ties depending on the frame material; reinforcement at corners and gates improves longevity.

• Cut with standard wire snips or tin snips
• Attach with fencing staples, hog rings, or zip ties
• Conforms to rounded frames and uneven ground easily
• Bundle multiple rolls for taller fences or heavier animals

Will this netting damage plants or limit garden access?

Because the mesh is open and the wire is relatively thin, it won’t excessively shade plants or restrict airflow. It can be used as a gentle trellis or wrapped around saplings without smothering them—secure loosely to allow growth. For frequent access points, build hinged gates or removable sections to preserve convenience.

• Open 2‑inch hex mesh preserves light and airflow
• Works as a trellis for beans, peas, or vines
• Loose wrapping protects young trunks without girdling
• Easy to create removable panels for access

Who this is for: hobby farmers, backyard poultry keepers, gardeners, and homeowners who need a versatile fencing material that’s easy to shape and reliable against small animals. Choose this roll when you want a cost‑effective, rust‑resistant solution for chicken runs, rabbit enclosures, garden borders, plant supports, or DIY cages. If you require protection from larger predators or heavy livestock, consider combining this netting with sturdier posts, tighter fastenings, or an additional barrier layer.
