[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1803798, member: 42782"] When we first moved to SW Oregon the fences were a joke of leaning barb wire held together with baling twine. The ranch across the road leased the place for cattle. Almost every night we would hear people honking their horns because black cattle were loose on the state highway. And we'd go out for yet another midnight rodeo. Sometimes, locals beat us to it, got out and open the gates to run the cattle back in, thats how used to this they had become. My husband says he's too old to dig post holes. So he fenced the entire perimeter in cattle panels with wood posts every 16' and a T post between and I helped. Now the fences are horse safe. What the cattle had been doing was sticking their noses under the barb wire and lifting to get to the grass on the otherside, then fence crawl though. Some places it's just a long solid hedgerow of blackberry thickets. The fence is in there somewhere but hasn't been seen in years. [/QUOTE]
