i am looking for advice on fence design. i plan on three pens with some sort of a ally. i will be using 10 foot fence and well pipe post. i have a real rough drawing i will try to include. 20224:deer pen.pdf]
I would try to have the "working barn" outside the pens... maybe have an alley way coming off each side of the barn. I assume by working barn u mean handling facility? If so, have the barn in the middle of the open space and alleys coming off the front and back of the barn so you can run deer though
I am in plankinton and have a small setup with a under construction handling facility you are more than welcome to stop by
can you get me your number there in pankinton i sure would like to visit [email protected]. thank you
if you can open it i tried to add a real rough drawing on my land. there are possible three pens that sit in l shape each being two acres each. i am not planing a huge opperation but still want good flow and easy movement to working area.
So you have at least 6 acres to work with in that orientation? Is the barn set or just an idea for where to put it? With six acres you could definitely have more pens than three and allow for rotation I'd keep one of them 2 acres for your mature bucks and split the others
barn is not set just thinking where it would fit best. and roughly 6 acres is corrrect
Okay I will piddle around and get ya an idea one last question is it square or rectangular like 500x500?
Kass,
Here's something to give you an idea, the two front pens by the barn are extra could be for fawns or shipping receiving quarantine testing whatever it is you need this is roughly on 6 acres the main alley way in the center has the turns so that deer won't hang up as bad on you! This design is completely double fenced without any square corners! I put some gates in the drawing but there are more that could and be added everyone will tell you that you can never have to many gates! Good luck I hope this helps!
