After 14+ years of living with neighbouring shoddy fences they are finally being replaced.
Whilst my neighbours are great, they dont really do anything at speed.
There have been huge holes for years which i have had to patch over with chicken mesh to stop their dog coming this way and our chucks going that way.
There have been times where panels have gone in the wind because the post has rotted away, which we have shored up this side with a stake and a bit of rope.
The only thing that has stopped my chickens going awol is the shrub jungle i have had to grow (more for privacy than anything as the fence ranges from 3-4 feet high).
Well, its a big fence going up which means the shrub jungle can come down to a managable, attractive level.
