My 5 horse herd is so trained to a single strand of the white rope-type poly wire that I can use a single strand of it as a temporary gate. It doesn't even have to be hot. They see it and they're unwilling to test it. We can also rotate them through pastures using T-post corners and step-in posts with a single strand hung at waist level. As for the whole property perimeter fence, thank God for steel H-braces and T-posts. I put in a cross fence for cattle and included pressure treated wood posts every 20' to give the high tensile fence some rigidity for cows that like to push their head through to graze the other side. It wasn't 10 years before some of those pressure treated posts began to rot and break off.

So I have old field fence on T posts with barb wire on top once used for cattle; can I just remove barb and use this on top? Is that enough for the horses to "see"? They could likely bust through some of the old field fence sections..... Trying to figure out a compromise besides rebuilding it all.
@SWiFence3 ай бұрын
They do have adapters for t-posts. You're gonna want several strands though. And you're still gonna want to use in conjunction with the electrified.

Mark, Mark, Mark! You’ve done gone and started my cranial juices flowing. You know, us Ozark farm boys have tons of twisted polypropylene rope laying around. Every bale of hay sheds hundreds of feet of it. It can become a nuisance. Iffen you don’t gather it up, your brush hog will find it… and you will spend half yer day on yer belly trying to hack it offen the blades of yer stump jumper. Or, it’ll get buried in the manure and make it darned near impossible to fertilize yer garden. But, iffen a feller was wanting to use it to build a fence… he might be just a tad bit more motor-vated to gather it up before it causes a problem. Thanks fer getting me to thinking! Now all I need to do is to come up with some way of tying all those little short pieces together after I cut them offen the bale. Do you recommend a bowline or a granny knot?
@SWiFence3 ай бұрын
I mean if you're going that route anyway, probably just a dab of superglue between each piece. 😄

How well do you think it would work for deer fencing. Might be very useful for a 3d double deer fence. Hate that my vineyard has to look like a WW2 pow camp.

I wonder if the gentleman that likes to use pipe has seen the plastic posts out of New Zealand ? They claim they will last 100 years and are Made from 100% reclaimed plastic. They are black in color and very sharp to look at. I’m in the process of building a 20 acre pasture for my rescue horses and I am now leaning towards using Cameo. If I can buy enough posts to have them ship from New Zealand I’d like to use the plastic as well. I’m a small rescue and non profit. I struggle at times just to feed everyone and the quote I got on four strands of electric was close to 40k. So I’m really trying to find a way to save some money. I’ve already got 50 k in the stump digging and getting a good stand of grass going. Great video gentlemen. I believe the company is called Futureposts in. New Zealand. I was really impressed with what I saw.

Yeah that is fake. First it does not make sense there is no way to lock it by going back. If it WAS the case then just put the lock on the tightening direction. Manufacturers and some "KZbinrs" came out and debunked it.

I like it. Though I'm near a city so we can only have electric fencing if it is behind or above a 6ft fence & it must be on a DC energizer, AC energizers are banned.

There are a few horse farms near me that take the animals to Mexico to be processed for meat. I agree it's odd that the pretty ones get police duty, race life, or jump sticks.
