G'day Everyone, I just wanted to make mention of the wildfires over in the USA at the moment. No doubt many fences will need to be rebuilt... sadly and homes etc. We are following your fight against nature (unfortunately some deliberately lit) but you guys gave us Aussies a lot of support during our firey last summer so you should know we are thinking of you during this trying time. All the best, Mark

When I saw this video I remembered the horrible sad images from last terrible fire season in Australia, of bunch cangaroos and other animals trying to scape from the fires but they were trapped between the fire and the long fences of someones field... Have the country taken some measures to make corridors in order the animals would be able to scape safe in situations like that one? (I really really hope that it would never ever happens any more fires).

Lol, stumbled on your channel after trying to find content on how to care for my house plants. Then found myself watching videos after videos simply for your Dad jokes 🤣😂

More working class joe's deserve the spotlight and respect!

That's some quality right there, thick posts of hardwood and the main lines THROUGH the posts...... not just nailed to them. High gage wire that's not crimped or wielded. Don't let it's looks fool ya, it's a great job. I've seen some shocking jobs on the farm growing up and hunting, it's great to see quality work.

I love the quiet humility of these rural down under fullas

YOU'RE SO DANG CHARMING GAH!!!

Love watching people do what they do properly.... No cuts... Just get it done right....

Wish I had these cool Aussies come out to my place on the other side of the world! :) Hearing them talk would be an added bonus!

always a pleasure to hear people who know what they are doing talk about what they do.

It really is interesting. We dont appreciate quality fencing until we need it.

Really nice fence. Those guys do some good work. Maybe think about running a hot wire all around the outside. I'd put one low, about 6-8 inches off the ground. Then another right at the top. Grounding the fence wire will help. Pretty much stop any ground based predators from getting to your birds. In any case, cheers from the US. :)

Your dad jokes are golden. Thanks for the tips!

After watching this fence building video I'm convinced that Australians are just british Texans.

Binging through your old episodes, and that is a might fine fence.

Great video and good to see quality work by professionals who know what they're doing in all conditions. Well done

Thanks Mark, really appreciate videos like this which aid developing a different but essential part of your acreage. I'll be sure to look the guys up.

from the questions you asked, sounds like you got a huge better fence than you were expecting!!! very nice job.

Its lovely to see some quality work. Great channel Mark.

That was very good of you to promote them. Good workmanship should be shared.

Loved this video ❤️ I didn't realise the posts went that deep either. Very interesting!

i just love how chill the guy was

All of your videos are entertaining and interesting plus informative Mark! I always look forward to them...👍

i hope you were able to get the Roo out without to many worries, thank you again Mark for taking us along with you on all your SSM adventures! stay sane and keep well!!!

I enjoy any video you do!

They did a brilliant job and it looks lovely too.

I love the wild nature you manage to get in many videos, this roo fun to watch for me from 🇨🇦 .

Very impressive for them, like to watch them working on the fence. Thank you sharing this

Very professional blokes that know their stuff. Big thumbs up 👍

They seemed like solid hardworking fellas, props for showing their segments & glad you enjoy your investment on your property.

@@TR.Pixels Whoa, is that really true!? That's neat. I saw a video once of a kangaroo going after a guy's dog. Its upper body was freakin ripped, and I found it very disconcerting how it made it look kinda half human. Anyway, the guy just marched right up to that kangaroo and hauled off and punched it like it was bar fight! It was crazy! The kangaroo didn't run off right away, but ultimately the guy and the dog were okay. I imagine with a 2:1 ratio, this type of encounter might be just a thing that happens sometimes there, yeah? Maybe that's why the guy knew right what to do?

Much needed info in the homesteading farming community. Thank you for getting this information out. Although it is truly beautiful to see animals up close we do live in a rural community and there are lots of wandering animals.

Great feature. One of the biggest expenses can be fencing, but one of the most important long-term. 👍

The new fence looks fantastic!

Truly enjoyable content, and a very nice gentleman behind it. Thumbs up from me!

Love these. You are a goofball!!

Very interesting and well explained by Corey’s Rural Fencing. I didn’t realise how much was involved. 🦘🦘🦘

That was very interesting, I thoroughly enjoyed it 👍

I work on a farm and surprisingly fencing is very relaxing once you get the hang of it. Especially out in the bush in the middle of the nature

so many dad jokes but they always make me laugh.

Another inspiring vid.

I used to install fence for a living and bit am I glad we don't have to dig holes by hand any more. Up north here when you deal with frost and what not we typically cement them in below the frost line if ya don't the ground turns it's self and heaves the post and makes them go crooked and what not

Great job ans great info !

Very interesting thanks mark

Great video. Thanks

Just in time! Thanks.

Look at Mark and all his NFE ( new fence energy)

Great video!

This was very interesting. I have to construct a chicken yard in the next few weeks so this was actually helpful to me. Thanks for doing this fence video.

Very helpful!

Bloody brilliant good Aussie know how. Thank you for sharing.

I absolutely love ur property the way you dont put it to waste like my neighbour does! They had a lovely jetty but they used all of their land as a rubbish dump🤦🏽‍♂️.

Real Aussies doing real hard work producing quality results. Great to see.

Thomas mark this is really interesting as we are looking for property in Queensland

I live in a rental and could not install fencing even if I wanted to; but, I did find this interesting. Even if you read out loud The Odyssey, it would be interesting.

Such a great video. You honored hard working people. The editing kept the video quite interesting. Remembering us who are being affected by the wildfires got me tearing up. So far I’m not able to put your information into action, but I will once I have the space. You really are similar to Steve Irwin. I miss his intense enjoyment of what he did. Thank you for being brave enough to start your channel. It’s hard for one to believe that anyone would find one’s life interesting. Good on ya. 🌞💐🍷

Love it. Very interesting and a great job done! Wish I had the land to need a mighty fence :-)

Lovely job

That is some nice looking fence!!!!

Going to really be helpful for you!

You absolutely get what you paid for!! Great video mate 🍻

That post driver looks like a hoot to operate! Cheers!

Poor roo is bewildered.

I actually really respect that you mentioned the total price, not sure why, I just do. To be honest I respect everything that you have shared on your channel which I've had the pleasure of watching thus far.

Fences are needful things and local wildlife learns to work out their place - OUTSIDE... Good to hear praise for work well done. "The labourer is worthy of his hire." Hate it when folk begrudge an honest wage for quality work. Fair play to all. (From Ireland.)

I appreciate you showing the process and also for telling us the price. We are in SA and needing some fencing done and I honestly had no idea what to expect for price, and so was too worried to even consider asking anyone for a quote assuming it would be wildly out of anything I could imagine. The price of this surprised me and makes me feel like it’s an attainable goal to save for! Thanks

The timing of this video couldn't have been better. Currently installing a fence myself. Good to know that my Father-in-law's advice matches up with the experts.

Very interesting!

How nice of you to advertise for the fencing guys! What a neighborly thing to do! I'd imagine kangaroos could graze quite a bit on a garden. They remind me of deer, which we have here in Arkansas. There is a family of deer in my daughter's neighborhood that enjoyed her garden "buffet" quite a bit one year.

I like their matching hat/sunglasses combo

Thanks neighbor

They made a good job on your property.. i hope it helps a lot for you when it comes to animals that comes at night to eat some veg.. specially when they are young.. definitely to recommend them..

Great blokes

Hi Mark, what an excellent fence, it's rare(unfortunately) to get true professionals who will do a job properly, you were lucky to get the best!!

That's such an awesome price. Looks great 👍

Simply just enjoy watching the channel and you never know when you'll get a nugget to use later. Given a big 👍up.

I love the little short of the kangaroo at the end. Looks like it's going through all the stages of grief, including acceptance at the end with a clear, "Well, S***" stance.

If I had a farm and lived in Australia and needed fencing I'd probably call them ;)

The OC did say "probably" wouldn't that imply there may be scenarios where they may call someone else like if they operated outside of the OC's area? Kinda makes you sound like your trying to be an @$$ without actually following through with logic.

That is one very good looking fence. I own rural property myself and just love seeing a new fence! I bought a property with all DIY internal fencing made of whatever spare off-cuts of wire the person could find. An absolute eyesore, but I have to say, every time a section gets replaced I spend days just wandering around admiring the new fencing. And mine's not nearly as attractive as yours.

I always remember the animals that you always come accross and making video at night when they are out. Hopefully it won't happen again..at secured.. well done..

Amazed at the cost Thought it'd be a lot more. Anyway well done, maybe itll keep the roos out for a while. I was out bush one day and saw a big Kanga clear a 4ft fence that day as though it wasn't there..The original "flying kangaroo" brought me to tears in awe.
