poultry wire

Hexagonal fencing material

Poultry wire is wire mesh with a distinctive hexagonal pattern, used to build enclosures for chickens and other fowl.

The openings are small enough to contain birds while allowing air circulation.

Also called chicken wire, it sees wider use in gardens, craft projects, and light fencing: She lined the raised bed with poultry wire to keep out gophers.
