Thought I'd post a few pictures of my "calf catcher" that I use for tagging calves. Overkill 99% of the time but I can't afford the risk of the other 1% after getting in a wreck a few years back with a broken collar bone, ribs and punctured lung.
My calf cage built from junk on the previous owners scrap heap - I'm more a "Jock Cheap" kind of operation than a John Deere one :lol:
In action - I prefer this to quad bike type set ups - if need be I can get out of the cab, climb along the loader and back again in complete safety.
Nice to have the cows grazing again - banked grass over wintered.
Close up - my favorite kind of hay
Opened up the sward a little to show the green still present. This area is mainly blue grass and Quack grass which cure really well. In a couple of weeks we will start to get new growth and those first shoots of new green will spice up the feed value just when the cows need it.
:lol:
