[QUOTE="canoetrpr, post: 849590, member: 4892"] I have two permanent paddocks which I subdivide into furthur sub-paddocks with a single strand of electric using step-in posts. It has usually worked well but occasionally (once a week or so) calves have been getting out of the sub-paddock. I'm wondering if others use the same kind of system for rotational grazing? Do you use one or two temporary strands for your sub-paddocks? I put my step in posts and create my sub-paddocks once a season in the spring and they stay till fall. It would not cost more for me to get an extra strand in most cases but I can't afford extra reels. They are too darn expensive. Only one of my strands actually has a reel hooked to it as I need to add / release tension on that one. The rest go up in the exact same place every year so just have handles at the two ends.
