Title: stock fencing for sheep
Post by: undergruntled on October 14, 2014, 02:27:19 pm

Hi all.  We need to fence our fields for sheep and the stock fencing we have bought does have smaller holes at the bottom, but my lambs can get their heads through.  As we will be planting a hedge behind the fence, we don't want this to be possible and we have seen a fence with stock fencing wire about three inches apart on the horizontal wires at the bottom, which is much more suitable.  I can't seem to find any of it online though.  Has anyone got this stuff and where did you get it?  :sheep:

 c8/80/15 has smaller holes at the bottom getting bigger going up its not perfect but its the most common stock fencing there is... tiny lambs can get there heads through but not after a couple of months...
