Chillin' with the herd
My escape artist doe has decided to renew her efforts. We have a 20' X 60' X 4' woven wire pen and a sloped yard. She found a low spot in the pen and has figured out that she can jump the fence at that spot. She is the only one who can jump the fence. However, if she gets out, her BFF will run and jump into the fence until they are reunited.
My husband decided that a hot wire around the top of the fence would deter the doe from jumping over. However, without the doe actually touching the earth, there is no ground and thus no shock.
We bought the Zareba .05 Joule/6Volt 3 mile low Impedence Solar Powered Electric Fence Controler and already ran the wire along the top of the fence. We haven't installed the fencer or the ground wire. Any suggestions on how to configure the hot or ground wire to ensure a shock when the doe is in mid air would be appreciated.
Thanks, again.
