Calving Corral?

[Stocker Steve]

I am thinking about calving in a clean paddock that is quite a ways from the corrals. I am not the best with a rope. What is the simplest other way to confine a calving cow with temporary equipment if it comes to that?

Panels and a maternity pen.

I built a temporary pen and chute last year using ash trees and panels. Then I built a not so portable pen using mostly boulders. Now have some better ideas after seeing your set up.

Glad you got some ideas, just use common sense, you know how your cows handle and what you require for them.
