[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1809426, member: 38595"] Neighbor loads in a barn hallway,it's definitely not OSHA approved. 😆 I load through a 4x30 walkway, it's between a 30 foot pen and the alleyway. I open a gate just before they bottleneck into the alleyway. I load through the swing gate of the trailer. Sometimes it take a couple pushes to get them to go in. I try to be as stress free about it as possible. Seems once they get torn up stuff gets broken. I try to let them choose to get on the trailer. Works for 80% of them. If I'm by myself, I have to be patient. Calves go right on the trailer, cows know I wont get rough with them, but eventually go in. If there is anyone else behind them the cows load up pretty good. I scatter corn all over the trailer floor and put a small pile on the front. [/QUOTE]
