Fencing Supplies For Your Ranch
If you are setting up fencing on a ranch, there are a few fencing supplies that you may want to keep handy to ensure that your fencing project goes smoothly. Here is a list of some typical fencing supplies that you may want to consider keeping on hand:
- Fence posts: These are the vertical supports that hold your fence up. They can be made of wood, metal, or a combination of materials.
- Fence rails: These are the horizontal pieces that run between the fence posts and provide stability to the fence. They can also be made of wood, metal, or a combination of materials.
- Fence panels: These are pre-assembled sections of fencing that can be easily installed between fence posts.
- Fence wire: This is used to create the actual barrier of the fence. It can be made of various materials, including steel, aluminum, and vinyl.
- Fence staples: These are used to secure the fence wire to the fence posts and rails.
- Wire tensioners: These are used to tighten the fence wire and ensure that it is properly secured to the fence.
- Fence gates: These allow you to easily access different areas of your ranch.
- Fence tools: You will likely need a variety of tools to install and maintain your fence, including hammers, pliers, wire cutters, and post hole diggers.
It’s also a good idea to have some basic repair supplies on hand, such as extra fence wire, staples, and fence posts, in case any of your fence needs to be repaired.

A steel fence post, also called (depending on design or country) a T-post, a Y-post, or variants on star post, is a type of fence post or picket. They are made of steel and are sometimes manufactured using durable rail steel. They can be used to support various types of wire or wire mesh. The end view of the post creates an obvious T, Y, or other shape. The posts are driven into the ground with a manual post pounder. All along the post, along the spine, there are studs or nubs that prevent the barbed wire or mesh from sliding up or down the post.
Historically throughout most of the world, domesticated livestock would roam freely and were fenced out of areas, such as gardens or fields of crops, where they were unwanted. Over time, especially where crop agriculture became dominant and population density of both humans and animals was significant, livestock owners were made to fence their animals in.
The earliest fences were made of available materials, usually stone or wood , and these materials are still used for some fences today. In areas where field stones are plentiful, fences have been built up over the years as the stones are removed from fields during tillage and planting of crops. The stones were placed on the field edge to get them out of the way. In time, the piles of stones grew high and wide.
In other areas, fences were constructed of timber. Log fences or split rail fencing were simple fences constructed in newly cleared areas by stacking log rails. Earth could also be used as a fence; an example was what is now called the sunken fence, or “ha-ha,” a type of wall built by digging a ditch with one steep side (which animals cannot scale) and one sloped side (where the animals roam).
Cement is the key binding ingredient in ready-mix concrete. Cement is a fine powder made from limestone, clay, sand or shale. When cement is mixed with water, it can bind sand and gravel into a hard, solid mass called concrete. A replacement product for cement is fly ash, which is the fine ash remaining after coal is burned.

Built using a higher percentage of steel than traditional low carbon wire, High Tensile 15.5g Gaucho® Barbed Wire delivers a stronger product using a more compact, smaller diameter wire. Stronger wire means less sagging and enhanced fence memory, and eliminates the need for pre-stretching. It also means fewer posts due to greater post spacing intervals, translating into savings of time, money and maintenance work for your fencing project.

Loafing Sheds Now Available!
Loafing sheds are a great way to provide a safe and comfortable place for livestock to rest and seek refuge from the elements. They are also sometimes used as storage sheds for hay, feed, and other supplies related to animal care.
This type of shelter designed to provide protection for livestock such as horses, cows, and sheep from the elements. It is typically a simple, three-sided structure with a sloping roof that provides shade and shelter from the sun, wind, and rain, a must-have addition to any farm or ranch.
The front of the loafing shed is left open to allow the animals easy access to the shelter, and it may be situated in a field or pasture where the animals graze. The structure is often made of wood or metal and can vary in size depending on the number and size of the animals it is intended to shelter.
