Welcome it 2016 people,

So far we have had no snow but I am sure some people will have had some.

Electric Fencing in the Snow!

Well the winter is well underway and this means snow for most. Now if you are a chlid then all you are thinking of is building a snowman and sledging.. actually as an adult this can be fun but if you are a small holder or farmer then you are thinking maintenance of your electric fencing in the snow..

How is

Hello all, Happy Winter months.

And as many of you will have noticed hello rugs on some horses, this means that winter is here and that not only are the nights  darker and longer ( but now getting shorter yepee) but the grass will start to become scarse, now is an ideal time to think about sectioning off your field so you can rotate the horses to prevent poaching of the ground and you can still have some grass for them to eat here is a link to our horse kits which will allow you to look at sectioning

Well, we first put this Blog out at the beginning of November but we've had it pretty easy temperature-wise in the most of UK up 'til now ... so we thought it'd be worth putting this blog out again now that the ice and snow have well and truly hit a lot of us and we have had loads of questions about care of batteries over the winter!

The bottom line is that a wee bit of TLC of your battery now may help you avoid trouble with your electric fence later this winter!

The good news is that if you do need

The zebras were sheltering from the winter weather, the lions were relaxing after breakfast, the pandas were sleeping (apparently they can sleep for up to 16 hours a day!), the pelicans were preening and the flamingos

POULTRY NETTING 

Electric Poultry Netting is highly effective in keeping PREDATORS OUT (e.g. foxes, badgers, dogs, cats, mink etc) and POULTRY IN. It is simple to erect, just unroll the net and tread in the posts. The nets can be easily moved around so offers poultry new grass, helps to eliminate poaching and improves soil fertility.

This summer has been a fantastic growing year for most farmers... but how do you make the most of your fields?  This blog gives a brief insight into how one of our customers has made the most of his electric fencing and increased his production of winter fodder whilst giving his stock plenty of summer grazing.
