Arry 18,534 Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 What kind of short legged stock is that farmer keeping with wire set at that height, more like a trip wire. Thats a nice pic with the dog looking at you next to the pig wire (bloody pig wire) in the bracken. Good set up with the ferrets mate. Cheers Arry Quote Link to post

Cheers Arry there just used to be a couple of strands for the cattle but there is a new fence now on the edge of the wood. The barb has been there got to be well over thirty years and it was like new and sharp as hell. Seemed to be coated. In places there was just a single strand between trees chest height made me shudder. I all ways worked the other side of the wood but sods law rabbits all ways take him that way. His not exactly lucky either so well worth doing 2 Quote Link to post
