All About Electric Fencing

from For the Love of Goats · host Deborah Niemann

If you own goats, you only get one chance to get fencing right. One of the first things I learned about goats was that they were too smart for me to use a sub-standard fencing option. When people say that goats are hard to keep fenced in, that's because they're not using the right kind of fencing. Any animal is hard to keep fenced in if you use the wrong kind of fencing. In this episode I'm talking to Joe Putnam of Premier 1 Supplies, the company that  makes my favorite brand of electric fencing. I've been using it since at least 2004 or so. He talks about everything you need to know to get your fencing right -- the first time. We're talking about pulse, joules, volts, amps, and ohms, as well as energizers, conductors, and insulators. This information will be helpful to anyone who wants to use electric fencing, regardless of whether or not it's from Premier 1.
