It's more of what the rope or wire is made
up of. I had rope but it was made up small
pieces of wire as soon as it streched the
wires lost contact and became in effect
junk I was using it on calves one thing
that will be your friend is a good tester.
The best way I found was a double wire and
pigs will bury the bottom one so to prevent
that I angled the wire so the top wire was
at least 6 to 8 inches farther in then the
bottom wire. That way as they had nose down
they would get it in the back fun to watch.
Another thing to remember electric wire is
like a water hose the bigger it is the more
you get through. Biggest mistake I've seen
guys do is buy cheap wire or fencers get
new Zealand style they will last a long
time. If done correctly pigs will build
your woodlot. Google joel salatin. I think
that's close. Where are you located in
Wisconsin they have pasture walks different
farm's get to show off the good things and
yes some of these things that didn't work.
Don't worry about the neighborhood I've
heard it said so many times that won't work
yet a couple years down the road the
neighbor's copy me.
