OK

I am getting ready to build a Goat barn for when I move my self out of Commyfornia and end up in Arizona
I plan on using 16ga. Verco B decking for the lower section of the walls for the barn.

The decking is 3 ft. tall.

My question is due to the fact that Goats head butt everything in sight and challenge everything as well.
Is 3 ft tall high enough when they challenge the walls of the barn not to take out the thinner 26 to 28 ga. siding that I will have above the 16Ga.

Or do I need to go higher with the 16 ga.
I already have the B Deck and plan on making the Barn 15 ft wide and 20 ft deep I was told I could go 300 sq. ft with no building permits.

Anyone out there that can answer my question before I screw sompin up.
