[RC] Chain Link for Horse Fence - Tina Rushing

From: "TypeF \(Jackie Floyd\)" <typef@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: Re: [RC]   Boards At The Top of Fencing


...The one thing that I had seen work out at a stables I visited was

chain length fence with hot wire along the top. Not really conventional
horse fencing but it worked. So that's what we did. Nine years later it
still looks pretty darn good...

If you are near the ocean the salt air will make chain link fencing brittle.
If your frisky horse puts a hoof through it (you know this will happen) it
may have an undesireable leg-shredding result.  I don't know anything about
the safety and durability of chain link in other climates.  If your horses
are not frisky you may never have a problem.
