We have a small portable platform one but dang its heavy to move and they have to stand on it just right for a few seconds or it won't read ect. Any idea on how to make my setup better for getting them to stand just right but not leaning back against something?
I have used both, mine are under my chute and I like it better when working cows, one stop to worm and give shots. I help a neighbor that has his set up in a alley, we weighed 60 calves this morning that are selling Monday. We weigh them to get a accurate weight so he prices them to a buyer. If you are not working them it works ok, some wild ones are hard to get weights on. Once I get mine in the chute so problems getting weight, one or tow of his always leave you guessing.machslammer":3nmwv1rg said:What type scales you guys like?
