Contain stock & repair fence
Hi
We have owned our place for 25+ years & farm cattle. Our boundary fences are a mix of plain, barbed & electric & keep our cattle in.
New neighbours came 2. years ago & have bought thousands of crossbred sheep. The sheep have eaten out their home, & are now invading us & all their other neighbours. We have between 10 & 50 sheep to chase out nearly every day. They run back to the fence where they pushed through. The fence needs to have hinge_joint fencing attached to what is there. The sheep_owners say they will fix it but nothing happens. They are making new internal fences but not fixing the boundary fence. All the neighbours are angry about this. I have been trying to find a Govt Dept that has a rule about this. We are being eaten out & are now hand feeding our stock.
Please help!
