    They are surprisingly strong and wont tip.
    A few fence stays help keep em in place.
    No need to use tpost
    Exactly what I think I’m gonna roll with. Tks

        How many do you use per pen? I’m buying some next week.

                I wish I had better pics on my phone to show you the difference, but here is one of my pens that has 7 panels and the other that has 9 panels. These are all 20’ in length custom panels. I prefer the pens I have with 9 just because I’m a firm believer in building pens as big as possible (budget and practicality). I only had room for 7 where that smaller pen is but you can see that it’s plenty big enough.

                  Thanks!

                  How much were the 20’ers in Melvin?

                  I was planning On running by Rivera custom gate and picking up 12 10’ pre made panels, and adding a 16’ cattle panel as the gate. They are $48 a panel.

                    I remember it being a little cheaper per foot to get the 20’ panels. I think they were like $82 a panel. With that being said, if I could do it all over again, I would pay that little extra to get the 10’ panels and just double up..... because the 20’ panels are harder to trailer and are really a 2 person job on setup (just because of the difficulty of handling them by yourself linking them together).

                      We have used a battery operated hammer drill and rebar. Really easy with a couple people switching off from drill the hole and driving the rebar with a mini sledge.
