RE: [RC] making your own portable corral - Kristen A Fisher

Are you talking about t-posts and that bright orange fencing? If so, I have
used that. It worked OK, but:

- you have to be on ground where you can pound in the posts
- you have to devise some way of keeping the fencing attached to the posts
- when they lean on it or over it, it really sags and stretches
- it is nearly impossible to have a good "gate"

AAMOF that's the only containment my mare has ever gotten loose from. Twice.

A construction/snow fence corral set up with step in posts.  
That stuff is really strong and durable looking.  I figure if 
I can install no climb fence by myself, I should be able to 
set up a plastic fencing corral.  This is my favorite option 
right now.

Do any of you have thoughts on which one would be best, or 
other options?
