[Music] quick little pig update we've had these guys for about two months three months something like that i'm not 100 sure yet i can't remember i'll uh i'll put that on the screen if it's changed but we still haven't moved them out of the pig pen it's been so hot ridiculously hot that it's just we haven't had time work everything else so uh that being said we're gonna probably do that here soon this week maybe today maybe tomorrow i'd like to get that done and uh it'd be very nice to get it going all right so we got that part done just a couple stakes in we're gonna go ahead and lay some string see if we got enough we're gonna go two strand i like to go two strand one strand is probably enough but i'm gonna go two and uh yeah we'll see how it goes we'll start here and then i'll just kind of like run it out all the way and come back down so so okay i'm gonna run in and put a few more uh fence posts in and then i'm gonna i have some plastic insulators up at the at the house i'm going to grab and we're going to try those out step in type pulls all right so i bought this box of fence posts about a year ago we had pigs last time and i never got around to using them so i think this is the perfect situation to use these right now so pull i'm going to use every single one of them to make this fence nice and sturdy and i'm going to run through and just plant a few [Music] they're obviously pretty quite easy to use i mean all you got to do is set them down where you want them and step on them and then you just pop them in the spot where you want them so i'm going to keep mine there for now and as as they get older i'll just raise them up all right so what i'm gonna do is tie these off the way they should be right now they're just kind of like sitting in there like loose you know like that i'm gonna keep them tight but i'm gonna actually time in there the right way sure [Music] i'm actually going to tie it off like that all right and take the other side as well i'm actually going to cut this down because it's too much slack [Music] [Music] [Music] keeping it tight i'm gonna go in here like that [Laughter] we'll tie it off to this side [Music] all right i'm gonna leave these two pieces of slack right here for now i'm gonna go up to the top [Music] [Laughter] do the same let me cut this off now we're going to take this piece we're going to tie it down here we're going to make this connect to the bottom piece and make it far away so it doesn't touch the metal [Laughter] i'm going to take this bottom piece and tie to the top piece in the same direction like so or in the opposite direction but tying it to the other one now this is just connect them electronically with this extra piece too i guess i'll just why not [Music] there's better ways of doing this this is just a quick easy way and this is a temporary fake fence it's not as if this is going to be here forever so that's that now we'll hook up the energizer and we'll see how this does all right so uh here's the the fence charger i hooked it up now this is a um this is what this was our first fence charge little solar guy we don't have it hooked up right now uh this is what we train them on in there but uh what i have here is a one i made myself now this is a one jewel this is i think 0.3 joules or 0.1 joules it should stay on there actually let's see if we can find it uh 0.4 jewels so it's 0.4 whereas this is one so this one's a little bit more it's like two and a half times stronger and uh all it is is a battery charge controller it's in this little battery box is what they call these you get these at walmart or on amazon for 10 bucks and uh just a battery i got from from from walmart now we take these batteries once a week swap mount because i don't have a solar hooked up to it which is fine uh just coming out here you know once a week we come out here every day so it's not to feed these guys look at this pig this pig doesn't want anyone else to eat so so she she lays down in there and says uh this is my food that's what they do greedy greedy greedy they're at five pounds a day on feed i drink about five gallons of water too a day anyways uh back to this this uh works pretty well i'll show you guys what it's hitting at it's gonna max out the reader so and then uh i'll actually show you how how how it uh you know how it feels ah if you're sitting on the ground and you touch that it's gonna hurt a lot if you're standing up and you've got rubber rubber shoes you know like regular so so uh shoes with the rubber soles it doesn't hurt as much but if your body is actually touching the ground you're kind of grounding yourself out it's gonna hurt quite a bit so it's a pretty strong punch uh compared to compared to this little guy and it's perfectly fine for the pigs you know they respect it they don't mess around with it they they know better that's why these two little strands will keep these pigs in this whole area no problem now i did i did buy myself a bigger charge controller or not they're not called charge controllers they're called um they're called uh fence controllers charge controllers something that's in here anyways all right so i got this little charger this little uh tester i'll show you guys what it is all right so this this is the defense tester and it's pretty easy you just hang it on one on this and then you ground it out so it's kind of hard to see it's ridden 9.8 it maxes out at 9.9 so i got this hooked up you can stab this in the ground or you can just touch your grounding rod so you definitely want to have a grounding rod for some setup like this because you need good grounds and it's even uh recommended to have more than one ground like maybe like like four grounds or three grounds or two you know anything this is a four foot grounding rod so it's about three and a half feet in but it does pretty well now under in no circumstances do you ever want to touch that fence and a grounding rod at the same time or that fence and one of those um one of those like that corner posts i got over there that's steel you don't want to i've done i made that mistake and it it man it hurts i'll tell you what it really really hurts anyways uh that's a video so if you guys like this kind of stuff you know hit that subscribe button and i'll put out as much videos as i can about this this kind of content and then uh if you hit that like button you know i'd really appreciate it and these pigs would really appreciate it too alright thanks for watching you
