>>> I wouldn't use wood either. My first horse, an arab mare, spooked in my 2x6, 3 rail corral one evening, busted thru the fence like it was made of toothpicks, and off she went.
Holly made toothpicks out of a four-board, 2x6" fence once. I wouldn't have believed how easy it was for her if I hadn't seen her do it myself. Thank goodness, she's not a spooky horse normally. She was pretty young then. It's the only time I've ever seen one of mine spook that seriously...but, wouldn't you know it, we were packing to leave on vacation. Our departure got delayed while Cary ran to the lumber store to pick up four new 2x6's - while we were dreaming of relaxing on the beach! We always have kept enough boards on hand to repair a full section of fence since then. Karen Karen Thomas Wingate, NC No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
