Are plastic hurdles still available for cattle? Huntsmoor Park Farm used to sell them but I can’t find them anymore - I guess Bill may have retired by now.

Does anyone else sell them? I found a horsey site but they wanted horsey money for them....!!

Judging by the amount of bent metal gates here I'd say plastic would be useless .
I bought four, years ago. They’ve been really excellent and are lighter than steel hurdles. The one downside (apart from not being able to find any for sale) is that they’re much thicker than steel so take up more room in, say, a livestock trailer

Cant remember the name or find the website.
Maybe someone else will know..

but plastic is not emvormentally friendly is it now....:sneaky:

surely it should be willow wattle hurdles woven by local naturists (that doesnt sound quite right :unsure:) or how bout just many men (or rather persons if thers wokes (whatever they are) readin this..) holding hands in a long chain with determined (but friendly 😌) looks on their faces.......
.................that would do it i sure (y)

Coral pen system. They come in white or green (more expensive) and are fabulously expensive! V popular with stud farms though
