Watch this before you begin any type of Goat fencing project. I'm going to discuss 4 types of goat fence that I've personally built and used. I'm going to give you cost estimates and some pros and cons for each one. Hopefully this will help you make a better decision than I did on fencing goats when I first started. Also we're doing our first collaboration with Fowler Family Farms and Bois D' Arc Kiko Goats. Check out their videos from the links below. Be sure and LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to both channels.

???………ah!!!! ……it took me a minute to go through all the fences in my head. You’re right!! I forgot the crimping tool $79.95 and sleeves $13.25 for 100. I use those to join 2 rolls of fixed knot net wire. Thanks. I’ll see if I can pin this response.

Thank you so much for the info! The electric on-top of the knot fence, would that help keep predators out?

Thanks for watching.. The top wire would do nothing for predators. I use it to connect cross fencing. If you put the electric down low it would help with predators.

@addisonranch 2 года назад

as far as age for electric net fence I would want them to be around 3 to 4 weeks old before I introduced it. One of the best and most helpful books for meat goats and goat health is Meat Goat Production Handbook 2nd Edition . I would consider it a must. Its put together by Langston University American Institute for Goat Research.....right here in Oklahoma.

@dennisdean3925 Год назад

Hey Brett, Good instructional video. Makes complete sense. I've put up some similar fence around some large pens in the past - mostly for calves. And I've put up a fair amount of barbed wire fence over mostly flat and rolling terrain, but I'll be putting up this quality goat fence over a terrain that is mostly hilly and steep in places. Any suggestions for me? Also, I did see the model number of the Knipex wire cutters.

@addisonranch Год назад

Yes when you go from hill top to hill top. Don't over tighten the wire. I usually tightened it until the fence was about 5 feet off the ground at the low point. Then I drove a pipe, pulled the fence down with my stretch bar and skid steer and wired it to the pipe. The grapple clips are a must for me when you're attaching the fence to your end braces.

@dennisdean3925 Год назад

@@addisonranch Okay, what about the position of the T-posts? Should they be perpendicular to the ground or put in vertically? I've had people tell me both ways. It seems to make more sense that they would be perpendicular, especially on steep terrain, so they would line up with the 48" goat fence. Thanks, Dennis

@addisonranch Год назад

@@dennisdean3925 a t post wouldn’t hold it down I would drive or cement a single pipe 4 foot in the ground. That’s what I did.

@dennisdean3925 Год назад

@@addisonranch Okay, Thanks. I've got probably 2,500 lineal feet of fence to install and nearly all of it will be on hilly to steep on rocky (soil) terrain.

@drshaynescott 7 месяцев назад

You haven't mentioned anything about fire risk for the electric fences. Can it create hot spots or sparks that start a grass fire?

@addisonranch 7 месяцев назад

My experience with 25+ years has been no. My education says there has to be a possibility. I would get an explanation from the manufacturer of the energizer you’re wanting to use before purchasing it and so you can better understand it.

Whats your opinion on the 4x4 sheep and goat fence I believe it's a fixed not type.

@addisonranch 2 года назад

The 4X4 will work great if its fixed knot. It will cost more than a 1348-12-660 because it has more wire per foot in manufacturing.

@alboggs7561 Год назад

How u hear of timeless fences they sell insulated t pole

@addisonranch Год назад

Yes..I prefer the steel t post. However, that's always subject to change.

@blakem311 2 года назад

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't field fence just describe the pattern of the wire? Your fix knot is probably a high tensile fixed knot field fence?

@addisonranch 2 года назад

I’m not 100% sure of the specific names. I think they all fall under “net wire”. They’ve always been referred to like I said in the video. Which is how I’ve referred to them for 21 years. That doesn’t mean I’m right😂😂 however it does mean it will keep me from getting confused when I’m talking about them😂😂😂. Thanks for the comment.😁

@ThePushmataha Год назад

Have you used high tensile Bekaert field fence? It is high tensile like your Stay Tuff. I agree fixed knot is superior but I can get high tensile 47" field fence interest-free for 48 months for $210 for a 330' roll.

@addisonranch Год назад

What kind of warranty is on the wire? Never mind I just realized your talking about Field Fence. I would HIGHLY discourage ever using that. If your heart is set on it I’ve of got several rolls of the same type fence by Sheffield that I would sell cheaper than that😳😳

@ThePushmataha Год назад

@@addisonranch Will you finance 12 rolls of it with 254 T posts 0 down and 0% interest for 4 years? 🙂

@addisonranch Год назад

@@ThePushmataha I don’t like the thought of financing but if the wires cheap enough it may work for you.? I don’t have any extra t post…….Are you a rep for Bakaert or are you really trying to get some fence built?

@@addisonranch Really building a LOT of fence. I am retired and would prefer to keep earning a return on my money and use theirs for free at 0% for 4 years, They offer a high-tensile fixed knot goat fence also but it is $479 for a 330' roll + shipping. Was also going to run some elec fence inside this to keep them off it.

@ThePushmataha Год назад

@@addisonranch This is all through a special offer from TSC. They charge a hefty shipping fee on some fence raising the cost considerably, so limited to what they keep in stock in the area. Getting some goats to keep the vegetation down on my 170 acres in the SE OK mountains.

@bearfamilyfarm 2 года назад

How often if any do you find your self having to replace worn out or cracked insulators on the t post?

@addisonranch 2 года назад

The only time I’ve had to repair an insulator is if an animal hit the fence so hard it broke or bent the pins that hold either the wire or the clip in place on the post. I’ve never had to replace one because of cracking etc.

@addisonranch Год назад

Thanks Dustin😁. Are you talking about the 12 inch vertical spacing or the 6?

@akavery Год назад

Is there any reason you wouldn’t use a solar powered generator? Is it because it would not be powerful enough for the length of fence that you have?

@addisonranch Год назад

Yes. Because of our brush and the length of our fence, we need more joules from our energizer.

@akavery Год назад

OK, thank you so much! How do I find out how many joules I need for my length of fence? Also, do I need to use that huge metal pole for bracing? I don’t have heavy machinery like you do. The best we have is a post hole digger that we have used to put in wooden posts. I guess I had thought that we could put up an Electric fence using only T posts. At least this is what a guy at tractor supply told us that he does. Can I attached to a tree as one of the anchors on the corner? We are completely new at all of this and trying to give our goats more space to graze. We are currently raising Mini Nubians. Thank you so much for your video and for your help! I will be subscribing right now!

@addisonranch Год назад

Hey Andrea, The brace is totally dependent on the type of fence. If you're looking at an electric fence you can totally use a tree for the brace. The tree will grow around the wire you tie to the tree so it will need to be retied based on that. Joules for the fence is a hard one. I would figure out how many feet of wire you will be electrifying and start there. Then get in touch with someone like Kencove Fencing and tell them what your doing, how many feet of wire and potential brush. NEVER under power your fence for goats.

@braceyrice5413 Год назад

Is field fence the same as woven wire fence?

@addisonranch Год назад

I think fixed knot and field fence are both called “net fence” but I will never use field fence again. I would probably use barb wire before field fence but fixed knot is the best.

@braceyrice5413 Год назад

@@addisonranch Ok thanks....I'm trying to figure out if something like Red Brand woven wire for sheep and goats the same as field fence or is it fixed knot .....regardless thanks for this video it's a massive help to a Beginner

@addisonranch Год назад

@@braceyrice5413 I’m not sure on the redbrand. The fixed know refers to the way they tie the vertical and horizontal wires together. The fixed knot I use I good because of this knot but also because the wire is high tensile wire. It’s much harder to bend which is great but that’s also what makes it hard to work with.
