The 'new' pasture I referenced above does have some wooded areas that are filled with underbrush inside the fenced in areas. Would goats do anything for this? Also, the fencing is 6 strand barb wire. Could I run 2 strands of electric on insulators on the inside of the fence and have a reasonable chance of keeping them in?
The 2 goats we had before as an experiment were mostly pets, which may have been most of the problem. When they escaped we usually found them on our porch.
