Hello,

Does anybody have a good resource for a farm store selling portable electric fencing? Our pasture have permanent paddocks, but we wanted to further subdivide them with electric fence.

Any sites or brands that I should look for or stay away from? I was looking at Premier1Supplies.com and they seemed reasonable, but I thought I would check with the experts :)

Thanks,
RedCanoe

We use the little round fence posts and an electric wire when we need to subdivide things.

Gallagher is good, but very expensive. There are other manufacturers out there that I feel are just as good, and half price of Gallagher. Parmak fencers are my favorite.

Tposts and electric... although truthfully I would make sure you have a permanent gate opening.. just two 3 inch wood posts so you can put a secure bungy gate on it.

Dare has some great supplies, if you're using tposts make sure to use the tpost toppers.. the white ones designed for horses are the ones I like the best, they fit the posts better and are more secure than the yellow ones.

I have used their products and they are a very good company and have good useful information and if you call them they are always willing to answer questions.
