I've been using this wire fencing for years now. The moms are teaching
the fawns (with skinnier noses!) to reach into the cage, they even step
into them to get at what they want. I actually ran two of them back
into the woods behind my field last night. Way too tame. Everything
I've ever tried; dog hair, Irish spring soap hung on the fence, two
plastic deer fences about 10 feet apart, it all works for awhile until
they figure it out. Once my dog spooked a bunch of them who were inside
the fence and they bolted through it got caught up in it and dragged it
200 feet into the woods! Now to make matters worse, the farmer who used to grow beans about a half mile from me is planting corn these last years. I always counted on the deer leaving my plants alone once the beans came up, but no more. I'm thinking maybe when the war is over and Blackwater Security doesn't have work anymore I could hire a few of them.......(Eric Prince lives just down the road a piece).
