Common questions

Farm & Ranch Fence questions · Shadeland.

The ones our crew hears most around Tippecanoe County.

No-climb wire (farm wire) is the safest option for horses — the tight mesh pattern prevents hooves from getting caught, which is a real danger with barbed wire and large-mesh field fence. Split rail with wire backing is another popular horse-safe option.
