rossi_j 99 Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Just out of curiosity, what did you shout at it? I'd just like to know, no particular reason electric fence sounds like a good idea! .atb. .ste. Quote Link to post

Failed miserably on that one! Quote Link to post
fat man 4,741 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 My mate who owns a small driven shoot had 200 pheasents in a small holding pen ready for releasing out on the shoot grounds and a badger got in,even though it was electrified and killed the lot in one night,how he knew it was badger was he was out very early next morn feedind rides and checking traps as he also has a day job and the badger was still in the pen.I also know of a farmer who caught a badger taking a new born lamb,so there not as harmless as people make out.

Alycidon 2 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 A mains fencer is the way to go. A friend of mine has one round a pen about 150 yards from his house, if a fox ever get walloped by it he hears it holler from his bed !! I have found the new Gallagers seem to pack less of a wallop than the 20 year old ones that have dies recently. The crack on a short is only audable from close up instead of 50 yards away. Both are 12V types. A Quote Link to post
danw 1,748 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I use these fencers on my pens http://www.rappa.co.uk/productdetails.cfm?prodID=SPE3000 really good my tester reads between 11 and 12kv which is some poke from a fence I can tell you just make sure if you run 2 strands to make the bottom one low enough to catch billy on his nose if it just catches his back he will push on through Quote Link to post
