Actually what I was looking in to was a field fence with three strands of barbed wire. Electric fence isn't practicle at all where I am and roughly half of that three acres is hillside leading down to a spring fed creek that hasn't run dry in anybodies memory. I raised cattle, chickens, and rabbits with my grandfather when I was growing up. Mostly we raised hereford cattle, although we had a few brangus cattle as well. I will take hereford over crazy danged brangus any day of the week myself
Anyway. I think I will give it a shot, if I can come up with the cash to refence the land. Thats going to be the big expense as what is there now is 60+ year old 4 strand barbed wire that is completely down in places.
What about shelter? Do I really need to worry about that in East Texas? I mean for petes sake it is 78F out today, and they are predicting 80F+! And this is typical! I had thought about putting up a three walled shed for them witha roof anyway, but I don't think I need to go alot further than that.
Opinions?
Thanks much again!

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
