Wire mesh as a coop material

Wire mesh is the hardware cloth or netting that covers openings in a chicken coop. It provides ventilation while keeping predators out. In these coops, mesh panels form the run walls, the roof of the run, and sometimes the upper house section. The mesh is stretched over a wooden or iron frame.

Mesh gauge and opening size determine predator resistance. Smaller openings block snakes and rodents; larger openings allow more airflow. The mesh is fastened to the frame with staples, screws, or welded joints. On some builds the mesh roof is hinged for access.

Forms and sizes that use wire mesh

Wire mesh coops come in stationary and mobile forms. Mobile versions have wheels and a mesh run that moves with the house. Stationary versions sit on the ground or a base. Lengths in this form include 51.6 in, 69 in, 76 in, and 80 in.

Some builds use an all-around iron frame with mesh panels. Others use a wooden frame with mesh netting. A coop may list a UV-proof roof over the house and mesh over the run. Expandable versions add mesh sections to increase run length.

Wire mesh versus solid materials

Solid wood panels block wind and retain heat but limit airflow. Wire mesh allows constant ventilation and lets birds see out. A coop with mesh on the run and solid panels on the house balances both. Mesh alone is not enough for cold or wet weather; the house section needs solid walls.
