Mini Horses
Herd Master
Bought 3/21 at $269. Red Brand sheep/goat, 330'. . Sadly it's way up in price. I'd like a couple more rolls. Will recheck current prices but, think it's $399 here now. Was last month online....didn't ask in store.
DD works at Lowes and they carry Red Brand in field fence, so I'll ask her to see if they'll get the 4x4 on special order...don't expect any real price difference. She gets 10% discount and at these prices that could "pay" for several posts!
Killer prices. . Don't need to tell you about post $. It's all pretty painful!
I have a place I've considered hotwiring but goats are not very good with just that. So I've not taken time and material -- that I already have!! -- to do. I'm considering that a real strong box may work and it's cheaper than rolls of fence. Horses, they are real good with hot wire. Have several solar boxes, 2 need new batteries, but they do not have the jolt of plug ins. Plug ins...need a plug. Have an old plug in that still works and packs a decent punch. May try a small area...within a perimeter. If it works, can run at other open field, which would only be daytime graze, back to barn at night. . Considering time and effort issues for tryouts.
Animals create so many considerations to handle.
a couple chickens went into garden yesterday. Of course, straight to mulched tomatoes! They scratched into it. Found the brown paper, not worms, tried 4 places then left. . Lucky me. I have to put wire on that pole gate! Chore 1000!
