Andy Lee wrote that electric poultry net fences were "more effective in 
foraging as well as predator management".

Right on, Andy.  And I love my wildlife, but nothing warms my heart much 
more than the middle-of-the-night YELP that tells me another coyote or 
wandering neighbor's dog has been turned away from my flock.

Mine are all over the place.  I love 'em.  The manufacturers lie, they 
cannot be moved by one person in just ten minutes, at least not when a 
curious goat herd is tagging along getting tangled in loose fence whenever 
they can.  But still I love my electric net fences.

I find them to be environmentally sensible too -- I use rechargeable D cell 
batteries in a "Wasp" charger for my moveable fences.
