[QUOTE="dun, post: 1270279, member: 34"] You could build a shed roof over the feeder and the standing to eat area. If you do go with a fixed place feeder you should condier either concrete or geotextile cloth and rock to keep the cow sie from turning into a bog. You might also talk to your soil conservation people or maybe even the eextension service to see if they have any kind of program to help building it all. Something else to consider, if there are any old dairys around the may have stantion sections with head locks. I used those for the feeder here in MO. Made it easy to give shots and AI while they were eating. In the desert every couple of months I would have to haul in more sand since even there the feeding area got pretty muckyand the sand pounded out. [/QUOTE]
