Small Animal Fence: Outdoor Runs for Rabbits and Poultry
A small animal fence marks out a run for rabbits, chickens or ducks in the garden. The nets are low, have tight meshes and are easy to put up and move. Your animals get fresh grass, and you decide which part of the garden belongs to them. Some nets can also be electrified, and then they keep foxes and stray cats at a distance too. That makes it easy to give your animals more space without building a permanent enclosure.
With or Without Power
A barrier fence without power is enough if you want to keep the animals in a certain area while you are around. It goes up quickly and comes down just as fast. If the animals are to stay out for longer, electrified rabbit netting is the safer choice. The net is connected to an energizer designed for small animals. Rabbits soon learn to keep their distance, and predators are put off. Choose the version that suits how long your animals are outside each day.
Protection From Above
For chickens and chicks, danger often comes from the air. Hawks and other birds of prey like to attack young birds in an open run. You stretch an aviary net over the run so that birds of prey cannot swoop in. Together with poultry netting around the sides, you create a protected area where your birds can scratch and peck without you having to keep watch all the time. Make sure the net sits taut and does not sag.
Frequently asked questions
How high does a fence for rabbits need to be?
For most pet rabbits, a height of around 60 to 80 cm is usually enough if the net is electrified. Good jumpers or runs without power need more height.
Do rabbits dig under the netting?
Yes, rabbits love to dig. An electrified net usually keeps them away from the fence, and for a permanent run a strip of mesh buried along the edge helps as well.
Is an electric small animal fence dangerous for rabbits?
A suitable energizer gives short pulses that startle but do not injure. What matters is using an energizer for small animals and never leaving the net up without power, so no animal gets caught.
Small Animal Fence for Garden and Run
Rabbits and chickens are happiest on fresh grass, but in the garden there are foxes, birds of prey and the neighbour's curious cat. A small animal fence gives your animals freedom and keeps those dangers out. Here you will find the AKO rabbit netting with double spike for use with power, the electrifiable Kerbl rabbit netting at 65 cm high and a Universal barrier fence measuring 80 cm x 20 m for a quick run without power. For poultry there is the Kerbl MultiFence poultry netting measuring 90 cm x 12 m and a black aviary net to protect against birds of prey, which you stretch over the run. The nets are easy to put up and to move on once the grass has been grazed down. Your animals get fresh greens every day and still stay safe from predators.
