Rabbits, such very cute little things aren't they

UNTIL

Peter here arrives in your veg patch and munches through the veg you have lovingly nurtured either for dinner or for the local show ....then he become a pest.

Well never fear Leslie is here.......

Electric Netting is highly effective in keeping rabbits away from specific areas such as crops, gardens, veg gardens, sports grounds, greens, newly laid turf and many farmers use it to protect their vulnerable newly sown vegetable plugs. It is

Well hello again,

So Spring has Sprung    Woo Hoo I hear you all say, Yes me too. So my question is who has finished lambing? Bought birds.... the egg laying kind? Has a new pony/horse or extending their grazing? Is new to electric fencing? OR Does your naughty dog or cat keep getting in the nice growing flower bed? Well if you are any of the above or something I have not mentioned then this blog might be right up your street..

So you have been on the  line and bought a nice shiny new kit, you

Have you ever been to Stirlingshire?  It is a beautiful part of Scotland - the 'Gate Way to The North'.  If you haven't been there - you should visit.  And guess what... I know a great farm stay which is beautifully done up and right in the middle of the farm so you can get involved if you want to.

I was lucky enough to be brought up at Old Leckie. The farm is now run by my brother, Fergus, and his wife Alison Younger (with their three girls).

Fergus and Alison have made a few changes over

Well Hello sun..... we today for us at least ( some of you who I speak to have been blessed with a lot more than us )

Here we are going to chat about keeping animals in a moveable enclosure, I am looking at Sheep, pigs and cows.

Keeping them where you want them:

Electric fencing is a highly effective way of containing or strip grazing your animals and/or splitting up existing fields. A visible and easily moveable three line fence provides strip-grazing when it is erected across fields. So why

Hello,

Now I am sure you are aware that all the recent rain has had a massive effect on so many people across the country, now we also have to look at the effect if has on your fencing.

So your netting has been up for a wee while now and should be working great, with the long wet winter months ongoing we suggest with all fencing you have a check of all the components and make sure you are as wet weather ready as possible.

Power and connections:

It does not matter if you are running off a battery

STOP THE PRESS YOU ASKED FOR THEM AND WE DELIVERED

Hello all,

I love deer and love to watch them as long as they do not eat my veg patch, to stop this we have designed some new kits with you guys in mind and some input from returning customers.

I have had a few calls over the last month regarding keeping deer out of newly seeded gardens and off new and mature hedges. Many of you have asked about an alternative to netting due to the area you need covering, length of area and just not wanting netting.

Well your fields have been in full use now for a few months and I am sure the animals have tested the fencing a few times, tried to munch it and also there has been vegetation growth.

Here are some things to check and look out for.

1. Check your power source? If mains - are all the connections still nice and tight no fraying? If battery - battery still charging? Are the energiser battery connections in place? If you are using a solar panel with a battery - is the solar panel in the correct position

Energiser – the power behind electric fencing….

Thinking of using electric fencing to keep animals in and/or keep predators out?  Perhaps you have had a look at electric fencing but it seems such a minefield you are not sure where to start?  Don’t be put off– it is easy, simple and safe to use. One of the key components to a good electric fence is an energiser, energizer or fencer.  A little planning at the outset will save you time and money, helping you choose the right energiser.  Here
