I’m explaining the 17 gauge galvanized woven wire for stucco or deep or Self-furring stucco netting.
As a rule for use in stucco, we prefer to use either 17 or 18 gage stucco nettings; anything lighter, like the 20-gauge wire, is mainly used for tile settings or for shower pans and or actually chicken coops.

Yes, I had a chicken a coop with about 7 chickens which I did indeed attach the 20 gauge wire, as that lighter gauge wire is okay to keep the chicken in and the animals out.

As a rule, I prefer 17 gauge or 18; as I said in this video, I dislike applying stucco, and hearing it fall off.
It sounds like cows crapping on flat rocks.
Most plastering yards sell the deep or self-furred woven wire for stucco, so if this deep-furred stucco netting appeals to you, Google “plastering yards near me.”

Think of stucco netting like Dobies for concrete. The Dobies keep the rebar off the ground; this way, the cement goes under the rebar two inches, and then above the rebar two inches, the rebar is in the middle of the poured concrete, where it makes the concert as strong as possible. The deep-furred stucco netting or wire allows the stucco under and over this netting, making the stucco as strong as possible.
