Question

OK I am going to fence for horses and i don't want to use what my neighbor used (Bob wire) any way I found 3 choices and wanted to ask if these are good and safe 1. poly tape 2. electric rope 3. electric braid also would these do ok with t-posts

Answer 1

i dont know what the wire is called but that is all it is no sharps things on it. it looks like the bob wire without the sharp things on it. it is made for horses. one of my neigbors has it for her horses.

Answer 2

Barbed wire can be used with horses, but it is frowned upon. Poly tape is alright. I've never used it personally, but it doesn't seem bad. Electric braid and electric rope are pretty much the same. I used a single high-tensil strand of electric fencing with barbed wire fencing for my horses. They respected it quite well. I never had any trouble with either type. You can use t-posts for any of those, but t-posts are only temporary (hence T-post). You're best bet would be to put up permanent fencing.

Answer 3

Definitely don't use barb wire. Poly tape: No. Electric Rope: Maybe, depends on if it was electric "rope" or fence. Electric Braid: Same. So if I were you, I would look for some electric fence.
