[QUOTE="The Grinch, post: 7499433, member: 72260"] We had never had a problem until last summer. Had a single strand poly wire electric fence up to stop suckler calves going through holes in hedge. One of them must have sneaked under it but when it came back gone over it. Poor sod must have got it’s back foot caught on top of the wire, dragged electric fence stake and wire into middle of field before wire snapped. Cut his foot through to the tendon just like cheese wire. Vet managed to sew it back together and put a half cast on but was touch and go whether it would heal for a few weeks, hence we are now loathed to use around anything under 6 months old [/QUOTE]
