Edit: 2/21/25- we haven't seen the hawk (or signs of panic from my flock that she was about) since a day or two after instaling this. She quickly realized she no longer could get to my flock.Hawks have made attempts at my chickens in years past but lost interest quickly when it became too much effort as there was lots of cover in the open run (not pictured as we took it down the install this netting). This year we have had a large female red tail intent on treating my coop as a buffet so we had to do something. Sadly, she did manage to get one of my favorelles before we got this netting up.It's tough to install, picks up and snags on everything. Unless you have a very small area to do, you're best off with at least one extra set of hands. Go slow and have patience!Here is what worked for us, which was still a bit difficult but seemed like the best route- we laid the entire length of netting, still gathered and tied so it wasn't all spread out, on our snow covered lawn (nothing to snag). Once we had the ends oriented, we fed the length of it, still tied at intervals, over the nylon roping we had installed for support over the open run. We untied and spread out the netting only after we had the length of it over the entire area, and we did a few separate sections that we overlapped the edges of and tied together with Paracord pieces and zip ties. We tied/zip tied the netting to overlap our metal fencing permiter.I was delighted this morning when I watched through our sliding glass door as the hawk attempted to brazenly swoop into the pen, just over the fence, only to hit the netting and get repelled. She almost tangled for a moment but managed to get free. She perched in a nearby pine but did not attempt it again. I am sure she will try again in the near future but it shouldn't take too many tries for her to give up. I am pleased to report there was NO damage to the net where she ran into it, much to my surprise. The net is also standing up nicely to some high winds today. It hasn't been snow/ice tested yet but I will edit this review in the future if it performs poorly then.Cheap fix for aerial predator issues but time intensive to install and likely to test your patience. But I prefer that to losing my flock!

Used this for a cover to our chicken yard. After a hawk took 6 of our chickens (didn't realize it was a hawk until the last one) got this and got it up that night (in the dark with the help of headlamps and headlights) Didn't realize that this stretches as much as it does so we had some hangover but it's doing it's job! Seemed thin but strong, hole sizes aren't too big, it has stopped the hawks from accessing our girls. Just be careful because one wrong pull and this could become a mess, but in the dark with 2 people it worked pretty well. Definitely recommend if you are having bird problems!

I have order a 25ft x 50ft and came in nothing compare to this one. This time i order a 50ft x 100ft and came with a lot of spots like these. I use it as above protection for my chicken run and the smaller one work perfectly fine for about a year. I decided to make my chicken run bigger a trust this same brand with a bigger size, but just a little disappointed with these knots. Hope they dont tear or end up being a hole later within the time. Also recomend buying bigger extra zip ties depending the use of this neeting, they are small and thin.

I tried putting this netting over my chicken pen. I had high hopes of this being a good product when I unpackaged it. However, to my dismay I was able to rip large holes in the netting with just a moderate tug.It is a magnet for sticks and brambles on the ground when I was trying untangle it and finally gave up.

I’ve had this netting up over my chicken yard, in full sun exposure for over 2 years, and it still looks and works great. Good quality material that doesn’t tear easily and seems last. But an absolute pain in the a** to install. It took my family and I 2 hours of torture to install because it wanted to get snagged on absolutely everything. If you’ve got little sticks in your yard, it’ll find them. Oh, you didn’t sand your wood fence to be as smooth as marble, it’ll get snagged on every little thing during install.

At my age, I've done a lot of projects in my life. I must say, this is the most damnable, frustrating material I have ever worked with. First of all, just unfurling it out of the box is a challenge, as there are no instructions and it appears to be folded into a great knot. As others have noted, it snags on EVERYTHING. Each leaf and twig will make a snarl in the netting. Every corner, stick, or even slightly pointed object will grab and hold it. So every time you want to move it just a little, you first have to go untangle it from whatever it's holding onto. It's not even that strong; if it snags on something and you try to yank it out, the net cordage will break. It took almost an entire day to get it to cover my chicken pen (to prevent the now-frequent hawk attacks), when it should have taken an hour. I have no confidence that it will last even a year. When it falls apart, I will definitely find a different solution.EDIT: I just helped my neighbor place the same material over her chicken pen, and it went a lot better as a result of my experience. 1) unfold the material out of the box very carefully and you will have a long roll of netting as well as more obvious corners. 2) use at least three people to help deploy the stuff, mostly so that you can 3) never let the material touch the ground, lest it snag twigs and other debris.

Bought it to cover my chicken farm and it works great. It was a little difficult to set up and cover because of the size, but my husband and I made it work. I was impressed with the look and quality of it. There were no holes or defects in the net. It is very large as we can cover the entire chicken yard with it. I am very happy with this purchase, it provides security for the chickens and peace of mind.

We have purchased two of these now, they last about a year and then the sun makes the net weak. Does not do well with snow weight. Also, its kind of a pain in the butt to put up, gets tangled very easy, but thankfully whoever makes the net ties it into sections.

I covered my chicken coop roof and it seems to be fairly durable. So far, I'm satisfied and would buy again.

Used this for my chicken coop before we put a solid roof on. Definitely kept the hawks away. It's MASSIVE - be prepared for it to be bigger than you think - haha.It's also very strong. I was letting my chickens free range one day. One of my roosters jumped onto the ledge of the roof then onto the netting and got himself a bit tangled. I kept trying to free the bugger from it but I had to leave him to go get a strong knife or scissors to cut him out of it. So while my chicken is a bit of a dummy, it proved that it would like hold hawks and owls away from our chickens.

Made a large chook pen out of this. It takes ages to set up, but good quality, nice thick threads, doesn't rip, can't fault it. Much better than the cheaper one we bought before.
