A new journey into homesteading "pic heavy"

[Mini Horses]

Seen a strange dog on the property. White husky

Does your dog not alert to strange dogs? Or do you still have him? I remember he left, then returned.

Ugh, sorry to hear about your stray dog problem and loss. Hope the panels work and keeps them safe for now.

He doesnt mind freindly dogs. But freindly dogs can kill livestock

I love cattle panel, and the many uses it has. Have you used the spiral connectors? Best invention since sliced bread.

Never heard of it

These things are "the bee's knees!" You just drop them down over the ends of the panels. They can be used to connect panels in line, or to make corners, connect one panel to an other anywhere there are 2 vertical wires in the grid. Make an instant gate.

Cover a few panels with plastic or wire small ga. fencing, and you have instant easy to set up/dismantle broody pens, small runs.

I use them for the CP fencing around my garden. That way, if I want to open the garden to get a truck load of mulch in there, all I have to do is remove a single panel. I also move lengths of CP around in the garden for trellising. A spiral to connect the trellis to the perimeter fence, plus a single T post for the interior end, and I'm in business. My tomato trellises are mounted about 12" above the soil, with 2 panels about 15" apart, with tomatoes growing between the 2 panels.

Cool, I've never seen those!

 

[Chic Rustler]

Thats cool, but i got bailin wire in the shed.

 

[Lazy Gardener]

Yep. Use what you have. I like these b/c they are super simple to put on/take off.

 

[baymule]

I never heard of those either, I use hog rings.
