foals and electric tape
« on: March 08, 2010, 01:57:06 pm »
So guys, im taping off some field for the mare and foal (when its born) the mare is very respectful of tape and wont even cross when down, we no how inquisitive foals are, do we give them a zap first off or best to let them find out for themselves?? i dont want an escape as the fencing is all down beyond the tape and i dont want any accidents!!!

Hermit and I are the leading authorities on here regarding Zap ain't we Karen? Let them find out with a wet nose on a dewy morning.Their hurs all stand up on end and you can see What the Hell was that but they don't usually try to find out.Pigs are a totally different kettle of fish We had one that used to go under and stop to scratch its back. :D :D ;D
