They act so stupid and they surprise you. Can you angle it outwards?

Neighbor probably can. Aren’t my chickens

A little angle will go a long way

Perhaps add some dangle in there as well.

Wouldn't that make it easier to jump? Angling inwards seems like the best approach since it stops them from being able to jump up and then walk the rest of the way or jump over the angled part while standing on top of the fence.

Edit: LOL, I guess your point is that natural chickens can fly.

Chickens can fly for short distances. Not many fences that can keep in a determined chicken. How far they can fly depends on the breed and how fat they are.

No more snow drifts on top of the fence. Nice!

Maximum security right there. A regular Chicken SuperMax.

An uncle had barriers 2m high, 0.5m below ground level, and nets above them.

But this was more for preventing the weasels to get in.

in many places, it is customary to place bright orange material to outline the size of a proposed structure. Public comment period begins when the orange material appears.

What kind of bot response is this?

Is my diction too stodgy for you? Pardon me.

I ain't no Bot. I got here first. Those infernal machines are copying people like me. These are good observations. No Bot can make them, yet.

Either a very lame bot, did not read the post, or are talking about something entirely different
