here @ home i'm small scale and small time so i look for creative ways to solve my needs. these 10ft tall heavy duty panels were given to me....all i had to do was go pick them up (easier said than done lol)

i dont think they will be jumping over these (i say that as i knock on wood and spit over my left shoulder) and that meens alot when you are a one man gang

I would say if they jump those you will need to put a roof on to keep them in! Being a one person operation you'll probably want to get them used to going in and out of there so it will be easier when you need to.

as we all know, cattle chute aint the most fun place for an animal to be, no matter what you are doin, no matter how much it's for their own good they aint uh gonna like it

they get fed in there enuff to know to come, they get ran through and handled enuff to know it aint gonna hurt forever :)

Yep, "food's on" or "dinner call"! It's a good way to get them used to going in and out of there.

Hey, I like that!

My only fear would be, where would I go when I get the cow that would rather go over me, than go into the chute?
I'm too old to climb chainlink!

It is amazing what one can do when one has to. I've been through/over things I would have said noway could I get through/over but when one gets an angry animal after one that changes things.
