RE: [RC] Fencing question - Snodgrass, Bonnie
I have both types of boards, the treated pine boards are 10 years old, the
oak is about 3 yrs old. I do have a wood chewer and she will devour the pine
if it isn't covered really well with electric wire. She will take the
occasional nibble of the oak if she can get to it. The 10 year old pine has
never split or broken but I do have a few split oak boards that need
replacing. The pine is easier to nail thru ans seems to be lasting well but
horses LOVE to eat pine, even treated stuff.

Subject: [RC] Fencing question
Need advice. Replacing a section of ENDURANCE horse board fencing.
Should I use treated pine or rough cut oak? Don't have any wood chewers
so taste isn't a big deal. It's just a short section of fence and
there's not a big difference in price but I've got a new horse coming in
and want to buy the wood TODAY. (read that as...the old fence expired
this morning). Don't recommend something besides wood. This is just a
short section near the house and it's very handy to be able to climb over
and through it, plus it's where they jostle each other around most
(feeding area) and I like wood.
