[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1387085, member: 17956"] Posted mainly, to show you don't have to spend much to handle a cow: We shut the rumor mill down every year, for about a week and a half at Christmas. I like to use leisure time on building projects. I've got 2 pastures, that don't connect with my working facilities. For quit some time, I've had a rattle trap set up of 11 corral panels in it for emergencies. I replaced it with about a 40 foot round pen, with a loading alley. I've had a couple of logs down at the saw mill for probably 6 months. He finally got around to sawing them on the shares. He sawed my half in to 2" X 7". Nailed em on some cedars I've had drying for a while. I guess the only cash I spent on it was about 15 pounds of nails, and a gate. Anyway, I like it better than what I was using. Probably be used mostly to catch calves in to bring to the house and wean. I might put a medina in it, but I didn't like the lumber for that project.
