I've seen lots of topics posted about working alleys leading to head gates and chutes, but how do you have your load-out area set up?
We have a full-gate with partial slide trailer, would like to have the full gate open to load, but that creates a lot of room for cattle to turn back. Sliding gate isn't my favorite-seems a little narrow and not my preference to use.
Doing some "trailer training" for steers going to freezer camp (feeding in the trailer), but our previous success all went to hades quickly this morning when it mattered and they NEEDED to load.
Don't need anything super fancy, only processing 3 or 4 a year, but these I'm working now are PITAs.
