[QUOTE="regolith, post: 675535, member: 9267"] Is that one of the ones that close when the cow leans on it? Bars open inwards so she pushes them closed with her shoulders. I don't get to choose the equipment here, unfortunately. I've wished for one for a while. Ideally a proper chute/crush like the bigger beef farms use, but they run into the thousands of dollars. I can find out if they make them to fit the gate space I've got, but it'll likely only go on the wishlist if it's not too expensive (I want weighscales when I reduce the overdraft a bit). Or I convince the farm owner (because it's his farm and his responsibility to provide the infrastructure). [/QUOTE]
