best fence for stud?

[Bward]

Depends entirely on the height of the horse. Panels are good becasue they can still easily see through them. Studs like to run up and get their chest right up against the fence. Over time they dig a trench deeper and deeper. They get so focused on Mares that they don't even watch where they are going. A fence tall enough to keep him from getting his jaws over would be my suggestion... and the hot wire to keep him off of it entirely. Actually if you do use the hot wire to keep him off the fence then he may not stretch up to see over it. Thats depends on how far from the fence you use it. trial and error?

I keep my stud in a pen with his weanlings. The broad fence is about 8 feet tall. The only problem I have is part of the fence is rails and the stud backs up to it to let the cavles chew on his tail.
