How To Protect An Existing Poultry Pen From Mr Fox

You have your space set aside for your hens.  They have a lovely run and hen house.  It is all fixed in place but you want to be sure that a fox or predator cannot get in.  It is possible to run a few lines of electric fencing around your existing pen so you can maximise your defences and there will be no way for Mr Fox to get near enough to dig under or scrabble over without feeling the wrath of your fence!

Here are a few things to consider:

PREMIUM 3 REEL SYSTEM - 500M 9 STRAND TURBOBRAID WITH GEARED REELS this amazing system has been made even better by changing the polywire to braided polywire - so instead of it being twisted its braided for strength its 1mm thicker (3mm in total) and has a higher breaking strain of 105 kg, so zapper and stronger (all you need to make it even better is for someone to put the fence up for you)

Why would you use this three reel system?
