Chillin' with the herd
I'm getting mixed opinions on how I should construct the holding pen for my two 1200# heifers that are nearly ready for slaughter......... My fence builder wants to build a 12' x 20' pen using two sides of the existing fence & gate (in the pic below) combined with panels (or steel pipe) & two gates on the other two sides. The guy (that's hauling my cows to slaughter) says those heifers,once excited, can climb over the top (or through) the existing fence. He thinks I need HEAVY panels & on all four sides......... Who is correct? I desperately need to get this built so I can start penning them up daily while they eat! These heifers will eat range cubes from my hand but don't like anyone else around!
