I want to do the same with the the tall posts and aviary netting, but for a chicken run. My chickens also fell prey to 4 racoons one night. Very sad, especially after 2-1/2 years with no problems. Two questions for you: 1) The aviary netting. Where did you get that? What are the specs? Are you sure it is racoon proof? 2) The tall black posts. Are those just standard fencing posts (from Lowe's, for example?) Did you cement those in or how are they attached? Thanks so much for sharing and great job! Kind regards, Todd Portland, OR Hi there….was very excited to see your awesome aviary, I was thinking up something very similar and then seeing your photos really brought the idea to life!

And yet thank you for posting what you did to build this new pen. We'll be building an aviary soon for our rescued homing pigeons, and reading posts like yours help tremendously as we research and figure out how to make our own predator proof. Your generosity of spirit is much appreciated. I’m so sorry for the loss of Georgie! And yet thank you for posting what you did to build this new pen.
