Hot fence. Finally!











Here are some pictures of our new fence. We have sheep, goats, donkeys, and a new horse coming on July 27th, so we decided to go with 5 strands of ElectroBraid. It is relatively inexpensive, VERY easy to install, and looks nice. Hopefully it will do the job for all of the different kinds of animals. Time and training will tell. I also included a picture of Mark's ingenious lawnmower invention. The ElectroBraid rolls are super heavy and we were going to have to walk the fence line carrying each one everytime. Instead Mark put the rolls onto a 2X2 and then mounted it onto the back of the lawnmower. He slowly moved the mower while I walked behind and watched the rolls as they unwound to make sure the braid didn't catch. It worked beautifully.
