Well, maybe this comes from owning horses too long and cattle not long enough. We fenced in some acreage for the cattle with 3 rail wood fence. It looks great but in the last 2 weeks, we've had a 4mo old calf go through it in two different places. I don't know if a dog is spooking him, if he's squirtin around and head butting it...or what.
Question, do you all prefer barbed wire (a no no with horses) or wire cattle panel or what? Its going to cost me a fortune replacing the fenceboards at this rate... so when I do the next run of fence I'm going to reconsider what I use. I've got more cows coming so now I'm freaked out that I'm going to have a mess on my hands. I'll be fencing 25 acres around the house.. any suggestions? Cattle panel with barbed wire across top? Thanks.
