Chicken Wire & Poultry Netting

Chicken Wire and Poultry Netting

When you raise chickens or poultry, you want them to stay safe from other animals and contained in their coops or runs. Help keep your birds secure by shopping for chicken wire and netting, which can be found in the vast selection of poultry products at Tractor Supply.

Keep Your Birds Safe and Secure

Chicken and other poultry need space to forage, roam, scratch and explore. Chicken wire and netting offer a way to provide an enclosed space for your birds, shielding them from predators and keeping them in their designated area. Whether you have a few backyard chickens or a larger flock, we offer the essentials you need as America’s largest rural lifestyle retailer, including wire and netting with these features: 

Durable Construction from Trusty Materials

Our chicken wire and netting products are flexible enough to create boundaries, but still durable enough to last a long time. Most often made of metal materials, such as stainless steel and galvanized steel, they remain sturdy over time and resistant to corrosion from the elements. Other options have posts made of HDPE, plastic or polyethylene, all of which hold up well outside.

Varying Heights and Lengths

Create chicken runs and boundaries of different sizes with our wire and netting. Shorter netting options, such as 2 or 3 feet, help create boundaries or can be used around plants or crops. If you have predators around that may try to harm your chickens or poultry, you may want to opt for higher designs, such as those that are 4 feet or 6 feet tall.  

Wire and netting also help you make runs for your birds. When you only want to create a small run around your chicken coop, choose netting or wire with a length of 50 feet. For larger runs, opt for longer lengths, including up to 150 feet.

Different Colors and Finishes

Choose from neutral hues such as black, gray and white that will make clear boundaries for your animals. If you plan to use netting around your plants or garden, choose a green color that blends in with the surroundings. When you need netting or wire that provides extra strength and corrosion resistance, go for a style with a galvanized finish. Options with a vinyl coating help prevent rust and corrosion for long-lasting use.
