Cost Breakdown

Recommended Tools & Supplies

Welded Wire Fencing

Sturdy goat-proof mesh — upgrade to 2x4 no-climb for small breeds

Rigid 16 ft panels — very strong, easy to install, no sag

Drive every 8 ft for welded wire, or between cattle panels

Drive T-posts without renting equipment

Walk gate with frame — goats will test every latch

Goats figure out standard latches — use a horse-proof or bolt style

Cut, stretch, and staple wire — essential multi-tool

Pull welded wire tight before stapling — prevents sag

Electric Fence Charger

Powers poly wire strands for electric perimeter

Pro Tips

✓ Goats test fences constantly — check for loose staples and gaps every few weeks
✓ No-climb 2×4 welded wire is best for smaller breeds like Nigerian Dwarfs
✓ Cattle panels (16 ft, 50" tall) are fast to install and nearly indestructible
✓ Electric fencing works as a secondary deterrent but not a stand-alone enclosure
✓ Bury or pin an apron at the base if predators are a concern in your area
