RE: Back out on the range!
Whoa! That's a robust fence! I was like, "how does it keep the hawks out?", then saw it's a chicken tunnel! Is it hot?!

Yes, sort of. Because we live in an area with NO rocks, we can lean double stake fencing so the top is 2.5' apart and the bottoms 5' apart. This is enough to keep the hawks out, but we can still walk down it.
It, itself, is not hot because we only have chargers for cattle, not poultry. But we have strung 3 wires all around it and that's hooked to a dedicated hot charger. This will deter the fox, but the chickens can't hit it.
