[QUOTE="Farm Fence Solutions, post: 1440063, member: 26621"] We have a small pasture, 5 acres or so, that leads to the trap/feedlot. The 5 acre patch doesn't have any water, so once the gate is shut on them in there, they have to go in the trap to drink. The trap leads to the alleyway, which leads to sorting pens, load out, working chute, etc. I usually have a good dog to help, and used to use a horse on a daily basis. I think that good alfalfa square bales make better bait than grain or water, but that's just my opinion. You can put out enough alfalfa to hold them for a while without killing them. Seems like with corn, it's gone before the stragglers are through the gate. When I worked in SD, it was all horseback and a little bit of cake. Sometimes it'd take several days to gather a big pasture. [/QUOTE]
