[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1766925, member: 39695"] Just an update. What I did back in February was working okay, but needed to be safer. We were vacc ing fall cows going to pasture. I got a phone call I needed to take and stepped out of the barn. When I returned my (then 9yr old) son had loaded the last draft of cows in the alley. He was so proud, I was proud and scared at the thought of what could have happened. I started looking for a crowd tub that night. Almost pulled the trigger on a Powder River one, but it had a 90 day lead time and was $11,000. I just kept looking and found this used Linn tub that was a little over 1/4 the price. The cattle work and flow better than I could ever dream of. Worked 120 cows that had never been through this set up (some hadn't been through a chute in years). Didn't even have any climb on each other in the alley.[ATTACH type="full"]21715[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21716[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21717[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21718[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21719[/ATTACH] The cattle flow in a circle now. In the small door, through it system, then out the end of the building take a right turn and in to a holding pen.[ATTACH type="full"]21720[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21721[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]21722[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
