[QUOTE="Dyann, post: 53520, member: 30"] We have been raising Longhorns for 14 years.. we use a 5-strand, high tensile fence, with T-posts every 25 feet. we use solar fence charges, that generally mantain about a 8000 volt charge. Our bulls and everyone else totally respect that hot wire fence.. it is cheaper that barb wire and more effective. The only place where we had barbwire ( back perimeter fence) was not effective. The Longhorns can get there horns under the wire and tear it up.. that is how our neighbor got a few Longhorn/Hereford cross bred calves. it is also our experience that if the animal does not have a reason to leave.. they wont.. meaning adequate grazing, water, etc. As to yard art.. there are some really really nice steers around also. They like to buddy-up and make great pets! [/QUOTE]
