Not to burst your bubble but I doubt if you can get enough produce off a 50 x 25 to justify a fencer and the posts and wire required to
I second the Parmak. Also, the Parmak 12UO will work for 3 or 4 weeks without recharging the battery.
I agree for around a garden. For a rotational grazing system, not so much thank you.
I have a total rotation system and divide it with poly wire all winter. Once the deer realize what and where the wire is I don't have any problem with them tearing it down.
Good for you. Success in this is like most other endeavors- taking persistence. Your deer may be crossed with corrientes-type deer and be crazy for veggies on top of that. I have luck putting white or gold streamers on the fence so they can see it better and avoid just running through it to start with. Keep the soil moist under the wire so they will get the full power of the charger. Best of luck.
Do you have problems with wild hogs? I did not realize that they were that close.
As jltrent said there are some wild hogs but actually I was referring to keeping tame hogs in not wild hogs out. We have one guy raising and selling "Pasture" hogs and they are kept in with 1 wire after he gets them trained to the fence.
A friend in Blue Hollow near you has a pot belly pig and back before Christmas I commented about how fat she was. A week later she had pigs. I ask where he found a boar and he said to his knowledge there wasn't a boar anywhere around but of course there had to be. Then in February my brother had some pictures of a wild boar 1/2 mile away.
I suppose we had better be getting ready. I have yet to see any sign of them. But I am sure it won't be long.
Shoot every one you see and you still will have some. They have been 10 miles south of me for years but none here yet. Maybe the Amish boys will help. They just recently moved a community in our area.
