We have a similar situation here...I feel your pain. We have a similar situation here, south of Miami in our urbanized rural ag setting. We get regular attacks from abandoned dogs, who are 'dropped' off to fend for themselves. They come in pairs or packs or 3 or 4, and will decimate a chicken tractor if they can get in. I stopped using chicken wire a long time ago-it's too flimsy. I switched to wire lath, with the smallest holes you can find. It's strong and they can't get their teeth or claws hooked on it, so they can't get a purchase to tear into the coops. <br />Hand in there, and good luck with your farm!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2796660071018059084.post-87118043242794203602010-10-04T07:34:39.115-05:002010-10-04T07:34:39.115-05:00Totally enjoyed your post Marie...
