[QUOTE="TexasRancher, post: 1814534, member: 8359"] Corral and Gates need to be 6' high without barb-wire. Gates covered in plywood-sheet metal (covered) better. Wasn't the calf's fault. If your plans were to sell him as a bull, has good genetics... to be a breeder...I would still sell him. You can reform and control a fence-gate jumper later in life...they need to know they will never be locked in for long for sorting....or better yet be given the opportunity to leave the corral first. Older cattle are pretty easy once they know they won't be the ones going into the loading chute for a bye-bye. Best to ween calves in groups, they follow their peer role models (more relaxed)...i wouldn't want to ween one alone....hell on wheels seeing its little frightened head banging on the corral-deforming-stretching things.
