Don't want to use copper anyways. Copper grounding rods are for copper wired homes. If you use copper grounding with galvanized steel electric fencing, you do that science experiment that moves metal from one source to another - galvanic corrosion. It will greatly reduce the lifespan of your fence.Copper pipes are so expensive. What are options for grounding rods?
You can use either galvanized rods, or simply drive heavy rebar into your soil. Rebar is cheaper, but in corrosive soils (like clay), it will have a shorter service life. SO use thicker rebar. Its (comparatively) cheap. Like 1/6th the price, last I checked.
