[QUOTE="tuckerfamilyfarms, post: 943587, member: 19138"] I am basically starting from scratch. The place is just an open, flat field. I am doing rotational grazing so I am thinking about using electric fence to get them into a holding pen and then use panels to create a long chute with a head gate at the end. How long should they alley be to the head gate? Should it turn at the end before they get to the head gate so they don't all try to turn around? How wide should the alley be? I have heard 28-32 inches to keep them from turning around. [/QUOTE]
