In the market for an automatic weigher/drafter sheep race, the Te Pari looks good, as does the Shearwell, but is there any others out there any good?

I find the problem with those is they argue back too much and cost more to run

Last Friday the days jobs all over ran some what,
So we were still vaccinating and weighing ewe hoggs at nearly 10pm...... all I kept hearng from the back of the race was "normal couples are in the pub now" & "normal couples have the wine open by now"

I find they are best replaced regularly with a younger model
