[QUOTE="bwranch, post: 87305, member: 102"] Depends on the size of your cows. It's been my experience that a 1400 lb heavy bred has a real tough time with 28 inches. 28 works well for weanlings and most yearlings. If I were building a non adjustable alley, I would make it at least 30. Mine are 30 with plywood sides and the big girls have to squeeze pretty hard. The solid sides seem to make the little ones less inclined to try to turn around. Lee [/QUOTE]
