How to Always Know Your Farm Fence is On! #farming #ranchlife #cow

What happens here

The versatility of the electric fence monitor allows for its use in various agricultural and homesteading scenarios. The device can be mounted near a water trough or anywhere along the fence line, depending on the monitoring needs. The video demonstrates its application for a mobile chicken coop fence, which is essential for keeping predators like coyotes and foxes away from chickens. By monitoring this fence, potential failures can be quickly identified, preventing loss of livestock. The device's ease of mounting means it can be moved and re-mounted as mobile coops or pasture divisions change, making it a flexible tool for DIY farm management.

Goal: Understand how to deploy the monitor for different fencing needs, including mobile setups

What they say

Hide

mount this over near a water trough. You can mount this anywhere on your fence. I just have it stuck up here with a bread tie. I also have one of these over by my chicken coupe. Now, my chicken coupe is a mobile coupe and that keeps the varmits out. So, it keeps the coyotes and the foxes and all that stuff out. If that fence dies, chickens lose their life.
