I'm considering purchasing a new property which will have roughly 2 acres of land. Fencing has been my biggest problem over the years and I'm running into that problem again looking for more land.
In the past for enclosures I've used horse wire fencing which they always bust through so that's definitely ruled out from past trial and error. More recently I've used cinder blocks which are ok but come with their own problems. If I stack them 2 high my big boys knock it over. Stacked 3 high it lasts longer but eventually after digging near the borders they come toppling over as well and for 2 acres that is a pricey option anyways.
Right now I'm leaning towards a heavy gauge chain link fence with wood planks to block their view from seeing through on the bottom about 2 ft. Ideally I'd love to have about a 2-3 ft concrete base with iron rod fencing but that price quote was outrageous.
What do you guys use for fencing? What has worked and hasn't worked in your experience? Post pics of what has worked for you!
