Uh, build a pen??? uh - they were/are in a pen. they run thru it. tried electric, chicken wire, wire panels, and wood fencing. they either run thru or jump over. and these goats can jump. caught one of them on top of our horse trailer and then again on top of the round hay baler. Mm, I used to raise Nubians and Saanens. I was able to keep them penned. Build the fences HIGHER! Cattle panels are cheap, and 4' high. I just used 6', 2" x 4" mesh farm fencing. Runs about $40.00 for 50 ft., welded wire. T-posts are cheap too. :-) Place one ever 6 feet of linear fencing. Works for emus too and they are worse than goats. -- Peace, Om Remove _ to validate e-mails. "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a Son of a bitch" -- Jack Nicholson |
