Hey folks,
Stallion just got out again and scared some folks. He is contained in electric band (solid fences aren't allowed where he is). I'm afraid of HT or thinner wire because of injury.
Actually a two part ??? as I type (I type slow :roll: )
1) I have plenty of fire hose to do his paddock. If I used the fire hose and then streched HT wire, think the fire hose would be strong enough to keep him from getting ripped up on the HT wire in a panick situation? Course there would be electric on the HT wire.
2) is the fire hose a good enough insulator for electric fence? If so, things would look much neater as I could run the HT on the hose and it would be invisable to passers by (which there are plenty), and maybe safer to the horse.
He's a smart guy, if he wants out he doesn't touch the fence, just corners his buddy and makes him tear up the fence. With the fire hose, I could set some solid anchor posts and make a nice fence.
