I thought about trying for taller cages, but once I got the wire and realized how easy it would be to knock out 25+ cages if I just made them in the shape they were already rolled into, it wasn't a tough decision.
I counted ten full squares and cut at the edge of the 11th and used that wire to secure the cage. I also cut the bottom horizontal wire at each vertical and bent it down to create the pegs to push 6 inches into the ground so I didn't lose any height. Drove a single rebar electric fence post into the ground next to the cage and secured to the cage with the strong and cheap rebar ties sold in the concrete section with the remesh. Cages are plenty big and secure for me.
