[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1803940, member: 16453"] Yeh calves are deadly on all insulated wires. I've lost extension leads other than the ones my wife mows over, wires from the electric fencer unit and other cords. They seem to know that once they get through the insulation there is copper wire to chew or suck on. Must have sweet taste to it. I know my daughter has had copper bits for horses as apparently they have a bit of a taste to them. I think it is just a case of buyer beware. You just gotta keep those things out of reach of the children, I am to do that but still get caught out on occaisions. Maybe they have a copper deficiency, I should leave a bar of copper out for them to suck on. Ken [/QUOTE]
