Aviary wire?

Maggie.23

Can anyone recommend a place to buy (preferably to order for delivery) a roll of aviary wire, not too expensive? It's to cover a rabbit run. Thanks.

These guys seem very realisticly priced http://www.hillsofdevon.co.uk/aviary-mesh.html. UK based but I think they do deliver.

Try a hardware shop, that's where we got ours. We decided to go for a plastic type mesh as it seemed stronger and would not rust, very good when left on wet grass.
A roll of the plastic mesh is quite light and easy to carry.

Thanks. Plastic seems like a good idea - easier to carry and cut.

The plastic wire can work but some of it the holes are too large and will let rodents in and bunnies can chew the plastic off. 1/4 inch aviary wire galvanised it doesn't rust you can get rolls or sheets of it in some hardware shops like homevalue hardware and woodies did the sheets of it last time I was there. Sometimes the local hardware shop does is as well. I find once you nail it on good and tight it lasts for years as long as the timber is treated regularly, Ronseal do a pet friendly wood stain but I find it needs painting every year instead of every couple of years like it says on the tin lol. With all the rain we get it isn't any wonder though.
They have a range of colours from a blueberry type purple blue to a nice green and yellow etc. really brightens up a run I find the green works nice in the garden.

Thanks, and I love the idea of blueberry woodstain!
