Hot wire

[redstars]

Can anyone tell me what I need to set up a hot wire around my coop and run? And the best place to get it. Thank you.

a 'lectric fence box (charger) and some wire. I've seen those plug in style one's for as little as 22..... the wire well....... you can get like 4 different styles with 3 different types of wire in 5 different lengths each..........................

Lots of choices for wire but it can be done pretty cheap. Look it up on tractorsupply.com
