I loaded out a bull today. 11 months old but a big fellow. Easily 1000 pounds. I haltered him and kept two other bulls with him until the trailer came.
Young stock that have never been on a trailer usually balk at the point of jumping on the trailer. It can be a test of wills when you are alone.
Today, I led the bull on halter, when he balked at the point of jumping in, I had the buyer walk in behind him. It took some patience but he jumped in.
Does anyone have any practices to make it go smooth? I am looking for a discussion of what other folks do.
