[Blackbelly] fencing for blackbelly sheep

[Carol J. Elkins]

I often receive calls from people wanting to know what type of 
fencing is best for blackbelly sheep. I always tell them that 2x4 or 
4x4 48-in.-high field fencing is preferred. But sometimes they ask 
what I think about 5-6 strand electric wire or tape. I have no 
experience with this type of fencing but have read that it isn't good 
for sheep. That may be true for wooled sheep, but I thought I'd ask 
you guys if it works for hair sheep. For those who use this type of 
fencing, what has been your experience?
