[QUOTE="jgn, post: 42910, member: 128"] I just used a temporary setup I made out of some gates and just a head gate to run all my calves through for vaccinating. I didn't have any problems without using a chute and was able to give them their shots and change out ear tags without any problems. The one thing that I think is of importance is as mentioned before, make sure your alley leading to the gate is only as wide as needed. Mine wasn't as narrow as I would have liked and it left to much room for the calves to try and turn around in. I too am small time and can't justify the price of a chute right now. Hopefully as I expand it will become a need rather than a want. [/QUOTE]
