Calf cart

[dun]

Does anyone use a calf cart to haul little calves around? If so, what are the interior dimensions?

Thanks

I used to do it that way. But either the calves are getting a lot heavier or I'm getting too old.
Stopped by a store to pick up some wheels and the had a garden cart. 3X4, 4 wheels, handle and deal to hook to the mule, metal mesh floor and sides. It's cheap but it was less then the wheels would have been. With any luck we'll never need it, but I'ld rather have it and not need it then need it and.............

make sure to go over and tighten all the bolts and what not, first time we used ours that hooks to the 3-wheeler it came about completely apart...

We use a calf sled here. Wheels would be a royal pain in the snow, over frozen cowpies, and dragging in the gumbo when the pens become sloppy.

Bought a blue Koenders poly calf sled last winter and love it. Nice and deep, very sturdy construction, and the optional mesh cover has been a Godsend. No more escapes from the sled on route to the barn and the cow can still see the calf, so follow along nicely. It's been the best calf sled that we've ever had.

Take care.
