[QUOTE="Danllan, post: 7215845, member: 8735"] We had a similar setup to your first pic' back in Zim. It was alright for the time and place, but there really is nothing as good - or safe - as a decent crush when you're working with cattle, it makes everything easier, you'll not regret getting one and will wonder why you didn't sooner. (y) Yep there is, we bought an IAE Chieftain 'Dual Width' about five years ago, can't fault it overall. But... when a scoop is fitted, there is a potential for a smaller beast to get its head out under the scoop axis; fixed this by making it look 'solid' with movable rubber flaps. Edit: I meant to add that you can make it even narrower for calves by putting thick foam rubber matting on one or both sides. [MEDIA=youtube]Ezys1U-ttgk[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
