Some call it pasture fencing. The size of the slots I chose are 2 by 3
inches rectangular. 5 feet high.
Used treated 2X4s for uprights in the corners nailed to the landscape
timbers, and at the gate entrance. Cut 2X4 braces at 45 degrees to hold
the
uprights in place from angular movement. Slapped a 2X4 on top to make the
rail. South end protected external to the fence from wind with plastic
nailed to this framing, and overlapped with 2X4s on edges.

If you live in Wimberley proper near the river and close to Hwy 12, you
probably are frequented by those almost tame whitetail deer. There's also
a
flock of turkey that are just as tame that frequent the area. Most often
seen in early morning off of Lange Rd. A variety of ducks do frequent the
river near the county road 1492 crossing.

Loose chickens, I've not seen anywhere.

I don't want a garden enough to spend that kind of money fencing it!! lol
I am sending your description to DH in case he decides he might like to try
it. I live behind the high school, just outside city limits, and the
chickens belong to us. They don't roam very far. I've seen that flock of
turkeys, they are something else! And a particularly nasty pair of peacocks
try to live at (one of) my client's house on the river.
With hope and heart,
Kathleen
