[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 4704586, member: 2119"] The more I think about it the more that sounds like a good idea. With the slight reservation that the trailer partitions are 2 foot stages. And the trailer is 6 foot wide. The beast really needs 7 foot by 30" to keep it comfortable (as in the race or crush) and prevent it from trying to turn round and jamming itself. If trap the beast in 6 X 6 it can circle round. If I trap it in 6 X 4 it still is not prevented from turning round. 6 X 2 is too small. If just going to field it isn't a problem if the beast turn round, but if they are going to the abbatoir or market they can tend to rub manure round the walls and onto their hides as they go round, which leads to penalties.
