So. I got two Nigerian yearling wethers the day before yesterday and they are a challenge for sure. They can hurl themselves over the four foot chain link fence that surrounds their temporary enclosure, which I was not counting on, so I spent a great deal of time chasing goats yesterday and not getting much else done. :/ I got the goats to clear brush in some of the wooded areas of my property.
So, basically I wanted to use some temporary fencing for the goats, let them clear the brush for me, move the goats and their fencing to another area, and work on installing a permanent fence in the now-cleared area so I could let the chicken range or let my dogs run or whatever.
After yesterday, I was thinking I would have to go electric to have any hope of goat containment...and they really do need to stay put as there is a busy road, potentially unfriendly dogs, etc.. Would something like this Electrostop Plus netting https://www.premier1supplies.com/detail.php?prod_id=87698 have a chance of working or should I rethink my whole strategy of having goats?
