Years ago i had a string of goats, I let them run free, all with bells so I knew where they were. I fenced the garden in, and around the house. They knew when to come to the barn for milking and grain.(posted 9660 days ago)I have a deer problem when it comes to gardens but, I have 8' fence, 2' high 2X4" welded wire along the bottom for rabbits and such, 6' of 2" chicken wire, neither the deer or the elk jump these fences, my gates are 11' wide so I can get in with the tractor or pickup.
