This is a quick step-by-step tutorial for installing a wire net fence, also called garden wire, garden netting, welded wire, etc. Technically it's not chicken wire but it's similar. This particular fence is 4 feet tall with 4 inch gaps, which meets regulations for fencing in a pool in most municipalities. It also helps keep your dog from chasing critters. The stakes are 5 ft U-posts. This is just temporary fencing until I can install permanent posts and make it look pretty. My backyard has several elevation changes, so this video also covers how to change the angle to accommodate changes in terrain. This might not be the look you want long-term, but it's functional.
