Premier 1 PoultryNet® | Electric Fence for Backyard Chickens, Ducks, Turkeys with Step-in Posts – 48" H x 164'L, White

An absolute must have for any sized farm. You absolutely get your bang for your buck with this fence. Hundreds of dollars cheaper than building a small fence and adding electricity to it. We have had zero issues with this brand/fence and actually have quite a few fences from them! Just be careful touching it if you are grounded out because boy does it work haha. Super strong, durable, and easy to install!

Great customer service from Premier 1 and a great product. I did some web research and still called with my dumb questions and they were very patient and helpful. I have a total of three of these poultrynet fences connected together (@492 linear feet) and so far so good. I could not ask for a better containment system for: Two goats, two pigs, four ducks and 20+ chickens and roos. We rotate our animals through a highly wooded/hilly 5 acre lot with one central barn-thingie. I call it Goat-tanamo Bay. We have moderate coyote, raccoon, redneck neighbor and dog pressure and this system has deterred incursions thus far. We move this fence almost every month and it is still super durable.By my definition of humane (I homestead, I eat animals, but I don’t eat friends) this system is humane. Every now and again I will hear a random LOUD squeal, bleat or cluck but the shock has never maimed or injured an animal. It’s more of a surprise really. Like a 6,000 volt birthday present, while you are not looking. With that said, I do not put small or juvenile animals into the paddock until they have demonstrated a wee bit of sense and some hardiness. Our domestic cat and little rat-dog each met the electronet once or twice… Now they won’t even go near it. The cat is smarter than the dog.There are a few notes that I hope will save you some headaches:• You must use the correct style AND size energizer. You cannot use high impedance style energizers with this electronet or you will burn up the net. Select an energizer beefy enough to charge all your fence length or you will not keep the good guys in and the bad guys out.• You must adequately ground (earth) your system with the recommended number of rods (per your energizer’s specifications). You can have the best electronet and energizer combo but if you are not grounded adequately you will NOT deliver sufficient shock to contain your animals.• As our paddock dries out from lack of rainfall, the intensity of the shock decreases and we have a few bold chickens make the jailbreak. If the same chicken keeps getting out, then we make Coq au Vin… The French have a tasty solution for unruly cockerels and hens.• The electronet will not protect my tasty animals from aerial predators or attacks (hawks, falcons, etc.) but a 12 gauge will.• Don’t make narrow channels or funny shapes with the fence or your animals might get wrapped up in the electronet, get shocked, shock you as you struggle to untangle them, escape the paddock, lose their ear tag in the struggle and get eaten by coyotes later that night as your children weep, wail and lament… It was a rough first night…• Your wife will not laugh as hard as you do if she shocks her bum on this fence…Homesteading is tough but fun!This is a great product, great company and I was not compensated by anyone for this review. I would buy it again and I suggest you buy it too. Even if you don’t have animals…Jokes aside, I hope you find this helpful!EDIT 6/16/2020I just wanted to do a 2.5 year follow up on this great product. This net is just as good today as the day I bought it! It does not appear to have degraded or declined in performance one bit. It keeps my animals safe from predators and still shocks my wife on the bum from time to time...EDIT 9/30/2020In central Kentucky we have lot's of standing dead Ash trees from the Emerald Ash Borer destruction. One of these Ash trees fell full on my electronet fence... The fence did not break it just laid down until I could cut the 10" diameter trunk up and then remove several hundred pounds of wood. I put the posts back in the ground and the fence works just as well as it did before the tree fell on it. If that is not quality, I don't know what is...

After repeated fox attacks, an incredibly greedy set of possums, and a trio of family dogs that got too excited if the chickens escaped their enclosure we settled on this poultry netting. It has been perfect! We haven't had possums sneaking in to eat eggs and hang out in the nesting boxes or a mama fox hell bent on feeding her young compliments of my "all you can eat" chicken population. Our dogs don't go near the wiring so that hasn't been a problem. However, I received the fright of my mid-life when I went to gather eggs and I was beat to the punch with what can only be described as the worlds largest grey rat snake. Satan's 2nd cousin was coiled around my clutch of eggs and in the process of having lunch. I "noped" the hell out of there and let him have his fill. We can only assume that he slithered up a tree and did a swan dive down into the coop as there is no way to weave his devil ass though the netting. I can attest for the shock value of the netting as well. My husband created a "gap" for which me to pass through. He also left 2 strands of traditional wiring which required a "step over". Ummmmm, note to self, don't bend too far over when stepping through the pass and over the hot wiring. That poultry netting lit up my hind end like I was tasered by the cops. My glutes seized up and sent shock waves down my thighs, rendering me immobile for a good several minutes. I howled like a banshee until my husband came running, thinking I had been the victim of a chicken uprising. Those feathered losers only wanted the blueberries I had in hand and couldn't have cared less about my paralyzation. So yes.........I recommend this poultry netting.

Wish I had bought this fence years ago. Love the ease of set up and disassemble as well as the quality of the fencing. Can move anytime anywhere! Lasted during hurricane Helene in nc

First off, instructions really could include more of how to’s like how to connect one to another, how to configure them, how to repair when you have to cut your dumb German shepherd out of one.Instructions need trouble shooting (you tube it if you have problems)My only actual problem using them is, they are heavy and hard to carry. I suppose being a 64 yo 5’7” woman hasn’t helped. It’s taking two people to move them. I can not hold it high enough to keep from dragging them or manage to pull a post and then pick it up and keep all the posts straight as I’m carrying them. So it’s two people or try laying them on a Gorilla Cart but then they drag and snag in the wheels if you’re not careful.Is working great though. I have three now(2 working, thanks big dumb shepherd). My chickens and quail are safe and I’ve not lost any to predators. I also use one as a fence for my dogs. They all respect the fence and stay out of the woods away from the coyotes and bobcats.
