How to Choose the Right Fence for Livestock

Choosing a fence for livestock in Colorado isn’t just about containment; it’s about safety and durability against the elements. Different animals require different tensions, heights, and materials.

Livestock Recommendations

Cattle: Heavy-duty field fence or high-tensile wire. Horses: Smooth wire or timber rails (Crossbuck) to prevent injury. Sheep/Goats: Tight-weave mesh to prevent “climbing” or escapes.
