Those kids chairs that people throw out. You can use them as sheep/goat ladders. So, they can get higher. It also stacks. They will stand on the chair and stand on other goats to browse higher.
I’m considering adding sheep to my small farm. I’ve been afraid to use electric fence exclusively to protect my potential new flock. We do have a few coyotes due you find the fence you use to be adequate?
I have not had any predator issues so long as the sheep stay behind the fence. I have watched dogs come up to the fence, sniff it with their nose, get shocked and then avoid it all together. I think that is what happens with coyotes etc. The problem I have had with the shorter fence is the occasional lamb that realizes it can jump the fence. You don’t have that issue with taller fence.
