Automatic calf gate

[Boog337]

I built an alley way for only my calves to go in and eat and get pushed into working pen... But not sure about the best way to close off the entrance without having to walk past the calves.. If they see me walking around to the entrance some will run out pretty quick.. Thought about putting an automatic gate opener with solar but hoping for an easier way.. Any thoughts or ideas would be great.. Thanks in advance..

Without seeing a picture or a diagram of your set up it would be hard to say. But just shooting from the hip, an automatic gate opener might be an option. I think @callmefence deals in those.

This is my setup so far.. My problem is at the calf feeder entrance.. To get it closed off in middle of pasture without any seeing me and getting spooked.. Thanks
