[QUOTE="lavacarancher, post: 1293941, member: 9198"] I'm not doubting what your saying, Mr. Angus but I'm sure having a hard time visualizing how this contraption works. You have some sort of cage that mounts to the FEL pod on the front of a tractor. You chase a calf around the pasture with the tractor and just about the time you think you've got the calf lined up you drop the cage over the calf? What happens if the calf sees this "cage" coming and just as you drop it the calf moves. Do you ever break a leg on a calf or worse, kill a calf? What happens when the calf makes a sharp turn towards the momma, turn the tractor over trying to duplicate the calf's movement? I think I'm missing something here. Can you send a picture of the thing? You know what they say, "one picture is worth a thousand words". Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
