Here's Sandy. That's right, electric fencing works with horses too. I first fenced horses with electric fencing 30 years ago. It worked then, but works better today with the modern, high-tensile wire and low-impedance chargers. Note the temporary poly wire and the high-tensile perimeter wire. Yes, we only use one wire! |

This lone bull doesn't want to leave. The single, hot-wire fence set 30-inches high does the job. Oh yes, he likes the grass too. |

These two bulls are behind a temporary polywire fence. They have no interest in trying it out. As far as they're concerned, this fence is nothing to mess with. |

This herd of bulls is moving to a new pasture through one of the many 30-foot gates on our ranch. The corner is a single post that took a few minutes to install. The 30-foot gate cost about $10. It's a fancy one. |

This is the real Grazer's Edge. Controlling how the grass is harvested can increase forage production about 40%! The grass is more nutritious for the cattle and more drought tolerant too. |

Oh no! Not chickens too? Here is a temporary chicken run. The stocking rate for laying hens is 200 to the acre. That's right, hens need grass and electric fencing is the best fencing material. |
