Right now we have 4 ft high field fencing. Our Boer has figured out she can jump it, and our pygmy is always getting under it. Their area is completely wooded. My question is, could we just use the electric fence polywire and just run a line on top and one on the bottom? Also, The chickens roam in the pen so would that also keep them from getting near the fence line.
Here is what I was looking at. http://www.amazon.com/Fi-Shock-PW-200-Polywire-Electrical-Conductors/dp/B000B9P0UK
I just thought of something. Could I use 7ft deer netting to deter them from jumping? I would run a ribbon through it so that it was visible to the goats. The fence we have is good is 90% of the time, there are just some soft spots in the ground, so I was thinking I could just stake down the areas that the pygmy can get under. The deer netting would keep the chickens from flying over, it would keep the goats from sticking their heads through the holes, and keep our Boer from jumping.
