I tightened the corners on mine with small screws, and staples along the sides and it’s been standing about 15yrs. Throw small screws in the corners and even the goats won’t be able to knock it down. Nice job tho, beautiful work👌💪

Thanks! I’m keeping an eye on it; my last one was welded wire and lasted all of 2 weeks 🤣

Smaller spaces between the squares might have been better-they might get their horns stuck in a weird way.

Hey Marie. So far, no one has gotten stuck. However, in the hay feeder, our smaller one (Mabel) managed to get her whole head stuck just the other day! So far it was a one time occurrence and I happened to be watching when it happened, but if it happens again I may be modifying that.
