In my garden I have six raised beds where I grow vegetables. The chickens never used to bother the plants much but over the past few years they've taken quite a liking to nearly everything I've planted, except for the onions. They don't seem to care for those, but for the past two summers they've destroyed my green bean beds. I built temporary fences in A-frame shape using 1 by 2 boards and hardware cloth. This was a difficult undertaking because the hardware cloth is difficult to work with. I like your idea of using the plastic fencing and considered that this year. It sounds like you've had great success with it so I will try that out next spring. It seems like it would be so much easier to use than hardware cloth! Thanks for the great idea!
