[QUOTE="Quickdraw Farm, post: 1302882, member: 23193"] Yes, standing up. I run them through my squeeze chute and catch them in the head catch. I don't squeeze them though because when you do it forces their legs together and makes it really hard to get to the testicles. My chute has the half inch tubing sides you can let down as many or as few as you like for access to the cattle. I actually have someone hold the tail and I let down enough side bars to put my right leg over into the chute so I'm actually straddling the side of the squeeze chute. As long as the tail is held snug and I am close to the calf/yearling, he won't kick me and IF he does kick me I am so close to him it's no big deal at all. Very few kick when "tailed up" correctly. Man I'd love to have one of those calf tables, that's the way to go. Someday I hope to add one. [/QUOTE]
