My brother Luke revamped his branding corrals, so we ran a couple hundred head through to see how they worked. Pretty well, I'd say.
Pipe is the only way to go. 3 1/2" uprights. 2 7/8" and 2 3/8" posts with continuous fence in between. Nice.
Luke has ole Red working pretty good. He calls him Roany.
Two different bunches we worked that have been on some lots being fed.
Once gathered, we separated the calves. The look good and strong.
Then we'd crowd a small bunch up.
And Carter would wrestle them into the alley.
And push them into the hydraulic calf table to be worked.
Grandpa applauded the effort.
On the table, they were banded and vaccinated.
Luke uses a lazy 96 iron.
With little effort we were done and ready for some brats.
Not bad at all.
Fun time. Good to see everyone. Luke puts a lot of work into his farm/feedlot operation, and it shows. The new branding corrals are a nice addition. Good work, brother. Keep it up.
