I am thinking about having a go with this. I would like about 200 feet or so, as tall as possible, and of course for a reasonable price.

Does anyone have any experience with it?
Do you like it?
Where did you get it?

I can see if I still have their number later, but a wool producers coop near Lethbridge gave me a pretty good price on 48" netting this spring.

I ordered mine from the co-op this spring Shannon. It is the Gallagher brand, they had it on sale for $230. I've got my broilers in it, and so far its great. You need a pretty big fencer on it.

I have been using the electric flock nets for 7 years. It saves a lot of feed. The chickens don't fly over it because they can't land on top of it. You do need a good charger as the net does ground out a lot. Sometimes younger chicks will get out through the mesh but adults stay in well.
I bought two more nets this year from [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Their price is similar to the wool growers price but they are local to me. I like the single spiked fence better. When the fence gets older the spikes can bend and if you have a double spiked pole it can be difficult to get it into the ground when the spikes are bent plus the single spike fence is $20 cheaper for a 164 foot roll.
