Choose Quality HDPE Mesh for Chicken Coops

Guide to HDPE Mesh for Chicken Coops Choosing the right HDPE mesh for your chicken coop boils down to two key points: mesh size (for safety) and length (for coverage). Below is a quick reference, plus our recommended products.   1. Mesh Size: Pick by Chicken Age Baby chicks (0-8 weeks): 1.0-1.2cm (stops escape, blocks mice)Adult chickens (over 8 weeks): 1.5-2.0cm (keeps chickens in, resists raccoons/foxes)Anti-hawk top covers: 0.8-1.0cm (stops hawks/sparrows)Custom sizes available if you have mixed-age flocks. 2. Length: Calculate in 3 Easy Steps Step 1: Confirm coop area 1 adult chicken needs 0.3-0.5㎡. Example: 10 chickens = ~4㎡; 20 chickens = ~8㎡. Step 2: Calculate by layout Independent coop (4 sides): Length = (Coop length + width) × 2 Example: 4m×1m coop = (4+1)×2=10m Wall-adjacent coop (3 sides): Length = Coop length + (width × 2) Example: 4m×1m coop = 4 + (1×2)=6m Step 3: Add 10% reserve For overlapping, corners, or a small gate (0.8-1m wide). 3.
