Got A Slight Problem

[dustoffer]

The hogs like this spot--and the soil is about 100% soft sand. Be going out tomorrow if it is dry to put t-posts on the legs and run the weed-eater so I can see them in the pen from my two stands. Got to weed-eat the trap too--

Drive t-post at each leg as deep as possible and wire the leg to the t-post. I have a similar problem and this has worked for me.

I’m surprised that feeder hasn’t been turned over already.

You may want to make sure and get those post down far enough that no one can fall on them!

Oh man you’ve got quite a leaner there. A few more degrees and the pigs will have quite the feast .I’ve had them topple one before

put (plates) feet on it. More surface area.

It has plate feet on it and I leveled it as much as possible after I took the picture. I will drive the t-posts parallel to the legs and wire ‘em up tight.

And flagstone under feet

I'm talking like 12"-18" feet (plates), not "pipe caps".

Good Luck.

Looks like an opportunity for an upgrade..

with hole in plate about a SQ ft and drive in T post

YMMV, but I have used a shovel to dig ~8 inches and bury the end of the legs, then drive t posts. I didn’t have any luck trying to drive them parallel to the legs, but put them about 2 feet in from the legs, straight up down.
