    Nope no sandals here, not that they might not be comfortable, but it would not be real smart when you are dealing with 600lb. 55 gallon drums of liquid fertilizer all day. Just might end up with a few less toes. Steel toe lace up ropers if you must know! :D ;-)

    I disagree. when a comment is made such as this "Several of us were just trying to undercut the sale of organic fertilizer." I find that as an attack on my family business.

    Electric Fence Help

    Thanks for the goat help! Next time I will try younger and more tame goats also. Maybe they will learn easier then the older wild nannies. I have had goats before but never had as much trouble as I had with these two!

    Electric Fence Help

    I have a fence meter that went clear to the top on the light type scale. I just dont know how many volts. They were Boer goats, with just medium hair. You could hear them get zapped!

    Electric Fence Help

    OK, I have a question on Electric Fencing. I "TRIED" to get a few goats this week. I read all about them, the experts said that a 5 strand fence was best with one ground wire. Well within 2 min. one nanny jumped the fence at a stand still, then the other one walked right through it. This charger...
