Pretty sure you would have to do woven wire along with electric strands, but just woven wire should work. We just did electric because we couldn't afford woven/welded wire, plus our goats have horns. And I guess electric could work with minis if you had more strands that are closer together with a really high jolt. We don't rotate, they just have the 10 acres all the time. Which works for us, because there is woods with pines, two ponds, and a creek that comes from a free-flowing well and doesn't freeze so we don't have to worry about water. I figure with 7 goats, only 2 cows and a horse, there is no way they will ever eat their way through that much space.
I do have to admit we had our first escape yesterday though. Barley (Saanen/Alpine mix), apparently accidently flew over the fence. I got home from work and she was waiting in my driveway for me to put her back in. I walked the perimeter of the fence, and there was nothing broken or bent. I couldn't figure out how she got out and neither could she. She just wanted to be back with her friends. We will have a herding/guard dog in the future as back up though.
