I'm going to build a 30x 30 fence around my feeder just to keep some horses out. I've got 39" field fence I picked up at work(ill see about putting it off the ground a bit for extra height). I really wanna do this as cheap and easy as possible because it may be moving next year. Do y'all think I can get away with t-post every 6 feet or do y'all think I need to concrete some posts. It's doesn't need to be extremely tight just enough to keep old horses moving along some place else. Ideas/recommendations?

The posts should work fine; however, the fence keeping out the horses will depend if the owner keeps them fed. Also, if you are using a spin feeder, I would strongly recommend building it big enough so that the corn/protein is not landing near the fence eges. Will cut down on the temptation for the horses to push down/in on the fencing.

Oh ya!!! Dont ck your SD cards with the kids watching. I put some homemade scent out for ya.
