I can see this system taking a lot of hard work, and risk out of managing an awkward animal. Money well spent I say, and well demonstrated by the boss. Great video 🙂👍🏼👍🏼

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

‘You wouldn’t run away with it’ I am definitely using that one at the next show! Thanks a million Declan and Laura for the review

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

Thanks Paul :)

[@bobuncle8704]

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

Thanks :)

Declan - great walk through the calving gate. I hope you are on commission as I’m sure he will have orders after seeing this video. I am also pleased as it is another step forward to keeping you (all) safe. It has been drought conditions here and grass on our chalk hills was getting critical, but showers today to keep the dust down - could do with a weeks rain really.
Thanks to the camera woman Laura as well.
Take care, stay safe, be happy and smile.

I love how your dog follows your dad everywhere to protect him 🥰

Great demo on the calving gate Declan Makes me consider getting one makes handling Limousin’s much safer

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

Definetly way safer for handling any cattle! Thanks 👍

[@paddy294]

That looks very handy and economical if & when your in the position where you are on your own dealing with a cow

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

It really is ! Thanks 👍

[@PaulToolan]

Some job! Bought the earlier model of the same gate a few years ago, fantastic job and major safety improvement.
We put the chain on the top incase the cow goes down.
The stopper you put on the sliding part move it up to the second bar it won't interfere with the backing bar then.

[@GTPLewellen]

[@jimmurray2965]

Great review by your dad, Laura. Quck question, what is the product he spreads on the straw bedding to reduce biological infection levels? Thanks in advance...

[@ritchiemullins6384]

The cow that the splits, was she okay?

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

Yes she is ok now thanks

[@sheeepguy7311]

Would you not buy a french calving gate, have seen lots on farms in France.

[@FarmingLifeatLaForge]

Usually shorter gates here, as dad explained it's the length and how well it's made that makes this gate better and safer to use :)

[@johnearle6667]

Boring
