Description

Goat & Sheep Fence Panels

Goats are the hardest common livestock to fence. They climb, they lean, they test every joint, and they will find the one weak span in a run. Sheep are gentler on a fence but push under it.

"Isn't welded wire bad for goats?"

This comes up constantly and it deserves a straight answer. The warning is real, and it is about thin welded roll — 14 gauge fencing sold in a roll, where the welds pop the first time a goat stands on it. That reputation is deserved.

It does not describe a 4 to 6 gauge welded panel. A heavy welded panel is a different product with roughly an order of magnitude more steel at every joint. It does not deform when a goat climbs it, which is exactly why cattle and hog panels have been the standard goat fence on working farms for decades.

Which opening

4" x 4" — the standard for goats and sheep without horns, and the same spec as the sheep-and-goat panel sold by the traditional wire brands.
2" x 2" — for horned goats. A 4-inch opening is exactly the size a horned head goes into and does not come out of. If you keep horned stock, do not use 4x4.

Height and layout

4 ft contains most sheep. Goats want 4 to 5 ft, and climbers want 5 ft with no horizontal rail on the outside to use as a step. Brace every corner properly — goats find the corner first.

❓ FAQ

Is welded wire fence bad for goats?
The warning is real and it is about thin welded ROLL — 14 gauge fencing where the welds pop the first time a goat stands on it. It does not describe a 4 to 6 gauge welded panel, which has roughly an order of magnitude more steel at every joint. Heavy welded panel has been the standard goat fence on working farms for decades.

Can I use cattle or hog panels for goats?
Yes — that is exactly what most goat keepers use. Choose 4" x 4" for standard stock.

What fencing works for goats with horns?
Use the 2" x 2" opening. A 4-inch opening is precisely the size a horned head goes into and does not come out of.

How tall should goat fencing be?
4 feet contains most sheep. Goats want 4 to 5 feet, and climbers want 5 feet with no horizontal rail on the outside to use as a step. Brace every corner — goats find the corner first.
