Not sure if this belongs here, but I have a question about electric netting for goats.

I'm setting up a new pasture for my goats this weekend and I'm leaning toward buying an electric netting kit, maybe from a brand like Premier 1 since they seem popular. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask since there's a "goat & sheep" section, but for those who've used it, is netting a good long-term solution or is it mostly just for temporary setups?

Hey there, also trying to get my goats in, just made a post about polywire but I dont know how effective it'll be too. I will keep an eye on your thread, hoping people can help shed more light

Electric netting can work well for goats, especially for rotational grazing or temporary paddocks. Brands like Premier 1 are reliable, and it’s generally easy to move and set up. For long-term permanent fencing, many people prefer woven wire or high-tensile with electrified strands, since netting can sag over time and might need more upkeep. It really depends on whether you want flexibility or a fixed solution.
