might I offer a suggestion being that I built some pens out of guard rail before. I would add a board between the rails, it does not have to be much but a calf will get their head between them and run down the rail and have seen it make some pretty nasty cuts.
funny you should mention that
one of my local buddies came by and said I shouldve only made the btm gap 6 inches and the top 10..right now its 8 and 12. it could easily be lowered 2''. id do that rather than add a board I think. he said almost what you did word for word.
ive got 8 calfs to work thru so ill try It and see what happens...
hook I got it from my neighbor that works for the road crew. im still trying to get him to get more. everyone wants it round here
