Agressive cows in drought conditions were jumping my 34 inch hog panels. I had to put two strands of barb wire around the top to keep them out. 44 inches was the magic number. Now I just buy 52 inch cow panels and cut part of them down where the der are jumping in and out. works grat and less work
Humm........and the hill country basically lives in a constant drought! What are you using to cut the panels down. I am one tool/equipment deficient individual when it comes to blow torches, welding stuff, etc.
Oscar. Take 10 hog panels. overlap one square and wire the panels together. After wiring about 4 together they will free stand. continue wiring the others while making a circle. After completing the circle, use a T-post at every overlap & every middle. Leave one panel with no post for the gate. Wire the gate closed with electrical wire, 12-3 w/ground is what I use. These are the Exact instructions from "The Toothdoc". I've been using this on 4 feeder pens and narry pig for 6 years.
