Pet & Livestock HQ Premium Semi-Rigid Electric Poultry Netting Fence 48" x 164' - Portable Pre-Assembled Electric Fencing for Chicken Sheep Goats (19 Posts, 2 Spikes)

I don’t usually leave reviews, but this electric poultry netting deserves one. We’ve got a small flock of chickens and a couple of goats, and this fence has been perfect for keeping them safe and contained.First off, setup was a breeze. It came pre-assembled and I had it up and running in no time—honestly, I did it by myself with no tools, just a mallet to tap in the posts. It’s lightweight but feels sturdy, and the built-in posts with double spikes really help keep it stable, even when it’s windy.The height is great for keeping in our more “adventurous” chickens that like to test boundaries, and we haven’t had any issues with predators getting in. The spacing at the bottom is tight enough to keep little chicks in, and the electric strands do a great job keeping raccoons and foxes out.We did have a different brand the solar energizer (it’s not included), but once it was hooked up, everything worked perfectly. I really like how easy it is to move the fence around for rotational grazing or just to give the animals fresh ground to explore.Overall, this fencing has made life a lot easier. Our animals are happy, I don’t have to constantly worry about their safety, and setup/moving is quick and stress-free. Definitely worth the money!

Although this fence does not hold up if you live where it gets heat waves above 100 degrees, they replaced it, with another similar fence plastic semi rigid vertical support.The customer service is exceptional. I will purchase from them because they're trustworthy people.It does take time to communicate due to the time zone difference but they always responded in a timely manner.

My previous netting was made by Premier 1 and was the basic temporary netting designed to be moved often and had the single spike. It was also meant for goats as the holes in the netting were much larger than this Pet & Livestock HQ netting and my turkeys would just walk right through it electrified or not, they did not care. I run a 1 joule energizer with this netting and so far, so good. Due to the way it's rolled up from the factory, out of the box it's a bit of a chore to unravel and lay out but, with a bit of patience, it can be done successfully. Having a second person would greatly speed things up. I would suggest buying one of those tape measures that roll along the ground to give you an idea as to where you fencing will go before actually unrolling it all. One roll of this stuff is 164' and although that sounds like a lot, it really isn't so map it out beforehand. Decide where you want your opening to be (where the beginning and end will meet) and tap the first stake in the ground using a mallet or sand hammer. Don't tap it all the way into the ground just yet as you may want to adjust the rods after you have it all laid out. Slowly unravel the netting and tapping / hammering each rod into the ground as you go around your desired perimeter. Tap the double spike part as opposed to tapping on the top of the rod. Continue one rod at a time until you meet up with where you started and tap the last rod right next to the first one. I hammered in a couple of 3/4" diameter (1/2" would work every bit as well) by 6" pieces of PVC into the ground in the exact spot the first rod spikes landed and exact spot the last rod spikes landed. This allows you to open / close the netting with ease and without the hassle of pounding in the rods every time you open / close the netting. Also, instead of using the attached strings to close the two ends together, I use a piece of hook and loop (velcro) cable tie straps as it's just easier / quicker. As far as an energizer goes, my personal opinion is do not skimp in this department. I wouldn't use anything less than .50 joule for one section of this netting and would jump up to a 1 joule for any more than one section. Along with packing a bit more of a punch, the extra energy helps keep the netting charged in the event a few weeds come in contact with one of the electrified strands. Premier 1 makes a nice solar charged 1 joule energizer Buy once cry once. All in all, this netting works as designed. I do wish it unraveled out of the box a bit easier but honestly, it could have been user error. I also would like to see this netting in green instead of orange.

I’m very impressed by this freestanding fence. It’s easy to use and does a great job at keeping our dog away from our coops. We aren’t using the electric feature so we cut it to size and have a ton left over. This will do great to keep smaller animals in an enclosed area and the mobility makes it easy to move it when you need to. Zero complaints!
