FARM GIRLS APPROVE!! Electric fence netting... comprehensive install/review/how to..and fun!

What happens here

The hosts, Josh and Mrs. Stoney Ridge Farmer, introduce the project, which is to set up a Premier1 electric fence for their goats. They explain that their goats are currently in a barren pasture and they need to move them to a new, lush pasture. They also mention that they will be setting up a 'goat mobile' (a shelter on a trailer) to feed the goats, getting them accustomed to feeding in the shelter so they can be moved easily throughout the pasture. They highlight the differences between their current Zareba brand fence charger and the Premier1 system, specifically its self-grounding feature.

Goal: Understand the project goals and initial setup differences.

Tools and materials

  • Electric Fence Netting Premier1 — Creating the physical barrier for the goats
  • Premier1 Electric Fence Charger Premier1 — Powering the electric fence for livestock containment
