Thats the absolute cheapest I can come up with that has decent durability.jedstivers":2fxiqoqr said:They over complicated that.RanchMan90":2fxiqoqr said:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=09zu62Iq_ak How bout this? How many feet of bunk do you allow per head? I pencil these to cost $3.75 per foot with a lift kit and 18" culvert at $5.25 per foot.
Almost like mine except no wood or cable I do 4 togather and one on each end turned the other way to keep them from rolling.
2 calves per barrel if you are feeding right at a fence. Double that if they can get to both sides.
I wouldn't build it up. Crossing out a barrel on each will keep it from tipping. Building it up will make it hard to drag, and may make where they actually can tear it up. I drag mine to the feed bunk some times, and drag it back to my lot. It hasn't failed yet.
