[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 716150, member: 5106"] If you are unsure use four wires, make sure you have a really good ground connection and it always helps if you can keep a couple of calm cows in with them to show them the ropes. I like to throw in a really calm replacement heifer or cow whose calf is not in the group ,it makes a big difference. My bull pen is mainly contained by only 2 high tensile hot wires , but all of my animals are hot wire trained as soon as they are born as we use it everywhere, even on page wire or a five strand barb wire fence. I had some really freaky commercials a few years ago, and a 5 foot panel they would jump over but a single strand of electric fence would stop them in their tracks. :? [/QUOTE]
