Hang on a bit, might be plenty soon once deliveries start on new ones ordered through grant scheme.
Ours has been on order for 6 months with delivery dates not being met. Having said that we might just hang onto old one as having 2 would be useful. Don't know if others likely to do same.

I’m in no rush want to get the right one. Marcus thought people would try and run two instead of cashing them in. He also said the ones he thought were coming in are being sold privately for more to neighbors so thought if there was anyone doing that this would be the place to find out

Sorted new springs, under warranty
. 5 years old 12 ft Prattley with 16' double race. I am waiting to see the grant coming out in January/February to update it. The Prattley will then be for sale.

This is what we have done,now run two which is super convenient as I can leave one set up in the shed at times.

Doesn’t that kind of defeat the purpose of a “mobile” handling system

Not really.
It means that one of our sheds at times becomes an indoor pop up sheep handling system.
We’ve found having 2 allows us flexibility.
Not having to wrap one immediately,if flat out can abandon one and just grab the other.

Sounds ideal! What’s with the different winch and drawbar systems?

That “flexibility” is tying up a fair chunk of working capital. Sell one to @James169 and invest in more animals to make some cash.

It may be holding up capital but you could say the same about any combine on any farm. I’m with @Yale on this, if you can afford to have 2 it’s a no brainier. We’ve currently got 3 handling setups but no mobiles. 1 can never be moved as concreted in, another HD IAE semi permanent system which covers 1 farm but is to heavy to move and s basic IAE economy race with 20 hurdles that gets moved around a few times a year. If I had which I’m hoping to get a fully mobile Rappa I wouldn’t get rid or sell any of the other systems as it’s handy like Yale says to be able to just move to another system that’s already setup.That “flexibility” is tying up a fair chunk of working capital.
