PESKY GOATS WONT STAY IN THE PEN! Fence gets re-worked..Why Mrs StoneyRidge isn't on the Vlog much?

What happens here

The video begins with an introduction to the problem: goats escaping their enclosure due to an ineffective poly wire electric fence. The host explains that the previous poly wire, containing braided aluminized wire, was not strong enough to deter the goats. He then presents the new solution: 17-gauge aluminum electric fence wire, chosen for its superior conductivity compared to galvanized alternatives, which he believes will provide a stronger jolt to keep the goats contained. He recounts a recent incident where neighbors reported the goats had escaped.

Goal: Understand the need for a new fence and select appropriate materials

Tools and materials

  • Aluminum Electric Fence Wire — New, more conductive wire selected for improved goat containment
  • Poly Wire — Previous electric fence material, deemed ineffective for containing goats

ready ready action action she does not know how to be herself on camera guys I just want to let you know that I get a lot of questions about why Mrs Stony Ridge isn't on the Vlog very much why isn't she there well she doesn't really like being on the camera so much is that yeah that's fair today's Farm Vlog today is all about the goat our goats keep getting out we use this poly wire I'll show you hang on you look at the camera so we use this poly a clean Crazy Wire that that's not the best in the world hang on right this is what you call a cold opening to to a vlog this is this polywire okay this stuff has embedded in it a little bit of uh aluminum aluminized wire okay so inside that inside this braid is some aluminized wire it is not keeping the goats up so we went to uh the our local Tractor Supply here and we got ourselves some aluminum electric fence wire I had the option of getting the Galvanize versus the aluminum you know I've got an electrician background in my in my world of everything I've done and I wanted to have a better um conductor of electricity so that these goats get a jolt and they start staying in their pin my neighbors called me the other day said your goats are out they're up here in our yard and I was said go out there and chase them off they went out and chased them off off but I don't want to get that call anymore so we're going to go up and we're going to work on the fence Mrs Stony Ridge has already taken down all the old polywire like a good Farmer's Life which is awesome we're going to go up here we're going to run some new wire and we're going to talk to you a little bit so come along with us today and we'll show you what we're doing we're going to keep these goats up using some aluminized electric fence wire all right
