RE: The Frugal Homesteader Pt. 3 (Electric Net Fence)

in #homestead7 years ago

We have two sections of Premier 1's Chicken netting. We've used it to move the chickens around the pasture and protect their feed area from the goats.

It's terribly useful stuff.

My wife also uses pallets to wall off the mulberry trees she's got planted in the pasture along the driveway to keep the goats off of them. Theyll be big enough in a couple of years to provide both shade and some extra nibblings for the dairy goats.

Great post. It reminds me of our place. About 13 acres.

Thank you. I'm really glad I got the fence. It has saved us some work for sure.

A question for both of you @goatgarden and @goldgoatsnguns :
We are considering a solar electric fence to build a new run for the chicken(s) and wonder if a top netting will be safe. Will it melt or keep pulsing?
