Escaping Goats Got Your Goat?

If you own goats, you may already know this, but goats have a knack for escaping. Goats are capable of climbing on, chewing on and digging under many types of fencing. One of the best options on the market is goat wire fencing. As long as the posts are not spaced too far apart, this should do the trick.

Keeping Your Cattle Contained

The fencing for cattle needs to be at least 60 inches tall, while also giving the animals plenty of room to roam. For a long time, barbed wire and woven wire have been the go-to choices for cattle fencing. While those are a worthwhile choice, high-tensile wire is also a viable option.

Too Much Horsing Around

When selecting a fence for your horses, safety should be your number-one concern. Horses love to run around, and if the fencing is not very visible, they are likely to run into it. The best option for horses is wood posts with wood boards. To protect them from getting tangled in it, horses should never be contained by barbed wire.

Keep Your Animals Safe

In some states, fencing your animals is not mandatory; however, it is always a good idea. Fencing keeps:

  • Your animals from getting lost.
  • Your animals from getting hurt in surrounding areas.
  • Wild predators from attacking your livestock.

Fencing is important, and quality fencing equally so. Call Milwaukee Fence Inc. today to discuss what fencing parts we have for you to use.
