Sheep netting is electric netting with built-in posts that lets you fence sheep and goats quickly and portably. Here you will find the Euro-Netz range from 80 to 145 cm high, the 90 cm Net Excellent sheep net, spare posts and the Twist Butler for rolling up nets.
Setting up in five steps
- Mow the strip where the net will go short, so grass does not touch the bottom lines.
- Lay the net out unrolled along the line and push the first post firmly into the ground.
- Walk on, set each post upright and pull the net taut between the posts.
- On bends, add an extra support post or a guy rope, so the net does not pull inwards.
- Connect the net to the energiser and measure the voltage at the furthest point.
Moving without tangles
If you strip-graze sheep, you move nets often. The Twist Butler helps: you slot the first post into the rod, turn the crank and roll the net and posts up neatly. Rolled up, it stands upright and does not get tangled. There are sets with one rod and crank, with three rods and a crank, and separate rods.
Goat fencing: a little higher, a little tighter
Goats test a fence more often than sheep. For them, choose the 106 cm Euro-Netz or Combi net with double-spike posts, or higher if your animals like to jump. Keep the net taut and check it more often in the first days on a new plot.

Frequently asked questions
How many nets do I need?
Measure the perimeter of the area you want to fence and divide it by the length of one net. Round up and allow for a gateway.
Which net for sheep with lambs?
A 90 cm net, such as Euro-Netz 90 cm or Net Excellent, is the usual choice for sheep with lambs.
Can the Twist Butler also roll up taller nets?
The Twist Butler is designed for nets up to 125 cm high, so not for the 145 cm Wolf Jumbo nets.
