I need some advice on how to keep the cattle out of our feeder pens. A friend and I hunt with my elderly Father and his friend, which means I keep care of the lease and all the feeders. I had mostly portable pens made out of rebar welded together and covered with hog wire. Last year they got crushed by the cattle. Has anybody used T post and WEDGE-LOC Bracing hardware, or have a good idea. I keep up with 6 feeders so expensive cattle pens get costly.

The "T" posts should add some stability to the pen I would also run a couple of strands of barbed wire around the top.

T posts and hog panels will keep out most cattle. It is what I use. Cattle panels will work just as well, they are just taller and not quite as easy to handle.

the panels will keep out the live stock and also the hogs or other critters.i just put 2 pens up with t-posts.try to string the barbed wire around a tree for stronger stability.i had a prob with 4 horsed trying to get in and eat all my corn.i just put up 2 strands of wire,used t-posts, and used trees for anchors.we also took the most vulnerable side and anchored with a leaning t-posts.panels are nothing bad.they really limit anything besides deer that can get in.
