[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1848351, member: 38595"] My setup gives me two options for loading the trailer. I can do a straight shot next to the alley way leading to the chute, or I can run them down the alley way and through the side door on the chute and into the trailer. Seems to me they do much better when they cannot see the trailer til they are right there at it. Gives them no time to think about it. Once they start going, don't let up. Keep that pressure on them. I've been poked at for it, but I make the trailer inviting to them too. Put a little fresh hay and sprinkle some corn to make it smell good. Might put a couple small piles at the front so they stay when the get on. I don't have a cut gate so have to get them all the first go. Mine also load much much better with someone other than myself behind them. [/QUOTE]
