I find it easiest to cut chicken wire with aircraft style sheet metal shears. -It could be done with diagonal pliers or wire cutters, but that's a lot more effort.

What are diagonal cutting pliers?

Diagonal pliers (alos called wire cutters or diagonal-cutting pliers) are pliers intended for the cutting of wire (they are generally not used to grab or turn anything). They are sometimes called side cutting pliers or side cutters, although these terms are shared by other pliers designs, such as lineman's pliers, and may lead to confusion. The plane defined by the cutting edges of the jaws intersects the joint rivet at an angle or "on a diagonal", hence the name. Instead of using a shearing action as with scissors, they cut by indenting and wedging the wire apart. The jaw edges are ground to a symmetrical "V" shape; thus the two jaws can be visualized to form the letter "X", as seen end-on when fully occluded. The pliers are made of tempered steel and inductive heating and quenching are often used to selectively harden the jaws.


Do chickens need to have chicken wire?

Chicken wire is used to contain a chicken, not protect it against predators. Often times people use hardware cloth instead of chicken wire-- as it protects against predators. To answer your question though, no chickens do not need chicken wire. Chicken wire can also protect the chickens from predators, especially if the lower part is well buried in the ground.
