YARDGARD 2-Inch Poultry Netting Chicken Wire, 36 in x 150 ft — 20-Gauge Galvanized Rust-Resistant

YARDGARD 2 Inch Poultry Netting is a 20‑gauge galvanized steel chicken wire roll (36" x 150') made to protect poultry, small animals, and garden beds with durable, rust‑resistant hexagonal mesh.

This versatile roll of poultry netting combines a classic hexagonal weave with a pre‑galvanized finish to resist corrosion and remain flexible for shaping, cutting, and installation. At 36 inches tall and 150 feet long, the mesh balances coverage and manageability for homesteads, vegetable plots, and small‑animal enclosures. Lightweight enough for DIY projects yet robust enough to last outdoors, it provides ventilation and visibility while keeping chickens, rabbits, and garden pests contained or excluded.

How does this netting keep chickens and small animals secure?

The 2‑inch hexagonal openings and 20‑gauge wires form a barrier that prevents most small predators from entering and keeps poultry and rabbits from escaping. The galvanized coating delays rust and maintains wire strength through seasonal moisture and exposure. Properly attached to posts or frames, the netting resists sagging and maintains consistent containment.

• 2‑inch mesh spacing for effective containment of poultry and small animals
• 20‑gauge wire for a balance of flexibility and durability
• Pre‑galvanized to inhibit rust and extend outdoor life
• 36" height suitable for pens, raised beds, and garden borders

Can I use this fencing to protect my garden and plants?

Yes—this poultry netting offers a physical barrier that deters rabbits, ground birds, and casual nibblers while letting sunlight and rain through. Because the mesh is pliable, you can drape it over raised beds, wrap saplings, or create temporary cages around vulnerable plants. It also works well as a support for climbing vines and beans when fastened to simple frames.

• Drape or stake around vegetable beds to block pests without shading crops
• Wrap young trees to protect trunks from gnawing animals
• Use as plant support for lightweight climbing plants and vines
• Cutable with wire cutters for custom shapes and repairs

How easy is installation and maintenance for this roll?

Installation is straightforward: unroll to the required length, secure to posts or a frame with staples, clips, or ties, and trim with basic wire cutters. The lightweight 20‑gauge wire bends easily for corners and curves, reducing the need for special tools. Occasional checks for loose fasteners and minor surface rust spots (over many seasons) keep the fence functioning well.

• Lightweight roll simplifies transport and layout around site
• Cut and shape with standard wire cutters and gloves
• Attach using staples, hog rings, zip ties, or fencing clips
• Low maintenance—periodic inspections and re‑fastening as needed

What are common practical uses beyond poultry pens?

Beyond housing chickens and rabbits, the netting is useful for garden borders, temporary livestock barriers, craft projects, and small‑scale repairs. Its flexibility makes it a go‑to material for hobby farmers, landscapers, and DIYers creating enclosures, compost bin reinforcements, or protective cages for sensitive equipment. The galvanized finish makes it more suitable for longer outdoor exposure than plain wire.

• Build rabbit hutches, compost enclosures, and temporary livestock partitions
• Reinforce garden structures, trellises, and raised bed sides
• Create craft elements or protective screens for outdoor gear
• Use as an inexpensive, adaptable fencing material for small projects

Who is this for: YARDGARD 2 Inch Poultry Netting suits hobby farmers, backyard chicken keepers, gardeners, and homeowners who need an affordable, adaptable fencing solution. It’s ideal for anyone wanting breathable, visible containment for small animals or a light protective barrier for plants and garden features—especially where ease of shaping, cutting, and year‑round outdoor use are important.
