 Posted: Sat Aug 05, 2006 4:00 pm Post subject: Extension to Electric netting |
 |
|
Ive had a problem with a fox jumping the electric netting that was supposed to keep the ducks safe.
So after the fox had pulled one of my lovely Muscovys off her nest OH made this extension . It took him 3 days to make and put up as theres quite a bit of netting, but in the 2 weeks that its been up we've had no trouble.
Its made from old water pipe with two sets of holes drilled to take the wire and a bent nail is used as a stop and to hook the netting to. He then connected it all to the system and it seems to work a treat  and has added about 18inches to the height.
