they tend to push forward when they encounter the hot wire. I processed all the geese years ago for several reasons and they never did figure out wire very well. Have not hot wired any goats yet but have considered one hot down low due to their always rubbing on a fence to itch and pushing through with their snouts because the grass is so green on the other side.
We run both solar and AC with good records. Horse fence is five wire with the top and next to last being hot. Without the hot down low they run the risk of getting hung up as they push for the greener pasture as well.
