    Best way to fence out cattle from feeders

    What is the best way ya'll have seen to fence out cattle from tearing up deer feeders? I've done the tpost and barbwire but I'd like to to something a little easier and better looking in front of our house. Any ideas? Use hog or cattle paneling?

    I have used 3-4 hog panels t poles at the end and middle.

    They are lower that cattle panels deer jump over fine.

      cattle?

      I'd use a dozen t posts and some four prong barb wire . . . . won't keep out hogs but will for sure keeps the cows away

        Invisible fences dont work if the cows lose their collars.

          I use hog panels, at least 5 if in a circle or 8 if square, I use 8 in sqare shape and t posts q 8 ft, also a 3/8 rebar 4 inches above the top of the panel, to make the fence out 40 inches high.

              We use hog panel, at least 5 if in a circle as stated above, that makes a big enough pen they feel comfortable in it. But, if a cow wants in, there isn't much that will stop them haha.

                No kidding. We have a pen that is made of 8-10 hog panels with a strand of barbed wire about 6 inches above the top of the panels. The cows just laughed as the broke in and busted up our protein feeders.

                  Ran across some steel tubing and was able to make 16 7ft. panels about 4ft. tall. Have not had a problem with cattle getting in but the hogs like it. Fortunately, I like shooting hogs.
