Points to consider
Because reel systems rarely exceed
4 wires, animals (insulated by their
hair or wool) can push their heads
between the wires
if they feel it’s
worth it
.
They are less likely to do this if:
1. They’re pretrained to fences.
2. They’re not starved and forage
inside the fence is high quality.
3. Energizer and conductor
combine to produce a powerful
shock (high voltage and joules).
A 3-strand reel fence subdividing summer pasture for dry ewes. While we recommend netting if
lambs are present, multi-strand fences will absolutely contain older animals that have experience
with electrified fences and aren’t grazed too “hard.”
Note: Users who have tried both
usually prefer IntelliBraid 3.0 to
IntelliTwine. Costs more/ft,
but it handles better on a reel.
To install
Tools:
Steel maul or sledge
to drive in the reel post
support stake; fence tester.
Time:
About the time it takes
to walk any distance (e.g.
1000 ft) twice.
Skill:
Minimal.
(above) In very tall grass adjust the height of the lowest
strand by sliding the harp clips up the Step-In FiberRod post.
