[QUOTE="Old Boar, post: 8994509, member: 2957"] 5 strands of wire with mains fencer. Top wire offset inwards. Gates hung with hinges in opposite directions. Gunning towers on each corner. (mine were Wild boar so you may not need this last bit!) When piglets first meet an electic fence, they will get a shock and run [I]forwards[/I]. Pays to have another fence beyond the first electric fence. They do learn eventually. They will heap soil up so if it meets the fence, they will go through. They know the second the power goes down... Water bowl inside a tyre if you want to see it again. A chair is a good idea as they are endlessly entertaining. [/QUOTE]
