In contrast to many other animals, sheep can be outside almost all year round. Therefore, a safe sheep fence is very important! Sheep are real grazers but also difficult animals to turn around. It is important to set clear boundaries with a good sheep fence. The wool insulates and therefore sheep are less sensitive to electricity than other animals. Therefore, you should provide good fencing so that your sheep cannot escape.

Electric sheep fencing is an excellent way to protect your sheep and keep them from straying away from your farm. It is an effective and low-cost method that helps farmers maintain their flocks. In this guide, we will answer some of the frequently asked questions about electric sheep fencing and provide detailed information about its installation, maintenance, and more.

What is the best electric sheep fence?

The best electric sheep fence should have the following features:

  • Low impedance: This feature helps ensure that the fence remains effective even in wet weather conditions.
  • Shock strength: The shock strength should be strong enough to deter the sheep from trying to escape. Which requires a suitable sheep electric fence energiser
  • Visibility: The fence should be visible to the sheep to prevent accidental shocks. For instance sheep netting is ideal for protecting your herd. 

What kind of fencing do sheep need?

Sheep need a sturdy fence that can keep them in and predators out. Here are some of the most commonly used fencing types for sheep:

  • Electric fencing: Electric fencing is an effective and affordable way to keep sheep in. It works by delivering a mild electric shock to the sheep if they try to cross the fence.
  • Woven wire fencing: Woven wire fencing is a popular choice for sheep because it is durable and can withstand the pressure of sheep trying to push through. See all sheep conductors
  • High-tensile wire fencing: High-tensile wire fencing is a strong and flexible option that can be customized according to your needs.
  • Wooden fencing: Wooden fencing is a traditional option that can provide good protection for sheep, but it is not as durable as some of the other options.

How to install an electric sheep fence?

Installing an electric sheep fence requires some basic equipment and knowledge. Here are the steps you need to follow to install an electric sheep fence:

  • Plan your fence layout: Determine the area you want to fence, the number of posts required, and the type of wire you want to use.
  • Install corner and end posts: Use heavy-duty corner and end posts to support the fence and provide stability.
  • Install line posts: Place line posts every 20 to 30 feet along the fence line.
  • Install insulators: Attach insulators to the posts to keep the electric wire away from the posts and prevent electrical grounding.
  • Install the electric wire: Attach the electric wire to the insulators, starting from the corner post and working your way along the fence line.
  • Install the energizer: Connect the energizer to the fence and power source, and test the fence to ensure it is working correctly.

How high should sheep fence be?

The height of the sheep fence depends on the breed of sheep you have. Here are some general guidelines:

  • For most breeds, a fence height of 4 to 5 feet is sufficient.
  • For larger breeds, a fence height of 6 to 8 feet may be necessary.
  • For lambs, a fence height of 3 to 4 feet is usually enough.

How to keep sheep in a fence?

Keeping sheep in an electric fence requires some basic training and maintenance. Here are some tips to keep your sheep in the fence:

  • Train the sheep: Before introducing the sheep to the electric fence, train them by using temporary fencing and gradually reducing the size of the enclosed area.
  • Maintain the fence: Regularly check the fence for any damage or vegetation that may be touching the wire and grounding it.
  • Keep the grass short: Sheep are less likely to escape if the grass is short and they can see the fence.
  • Use multiple wires: Using multiple wires in the electric fence can provide a stronger shock and discourage the sheep from attempting to cross the fence.
  • Use high-quality equipment: Ensure that you are using high-quality equipment that is designed for electric fencing and is appropriate for your specific needs.

Can sheep jump over fences?

Sheep are not known for their jumping ability and are generally considered to be poor jumpers. However, they can still escape from a fence if it is not high enough or if there are other factors such as nearby obstacles that they can use to climb over the fence.

Are sheeps hard to keep fenced in?

Sheep can be challenging to keep fenced in, especially if they are not trained properly or if the fence is not designed correctly. However, with the right equipment and training, it is possible to keep your sheep within the boundaries of your farm.

Do sheep need electric fence?

Sheep do not necessarily need electric fencing, but it can be an effective and affordable option for keeping them within the boundaries of your farm. Electric fencing is also useful for protecting sheep from predators.

Will sheep stay in electric fence?

Sheep will stay in an electric fence as long as they are trained properly and the fence is maintained correctly. However, it is important to note that electric fencing should not be relied on as the sole means of keeping sheep within the boundaries of your farm. It is also important to regularly check the fence for any damage and to keep the grass around the fence short to prevent grounding.
