Rutherford Beef Cattle Specialist Good cattle handline fac ilities are a must if a feedlot is to re- turn maximum profits. Good facilities help reduce stress on new cattle received. Reducing stress help prevent setbacks, disease and death. Cattle will start gaining sooner, throw off minor infections, make more economical gains and return more profit, if properly cared for and if the required jobs get done at the right time and with minimum excitement of the cat- tie. What Is Needed Every cattleman who hopes to sort and handle cattle effective- ly needs at least three things: 1. a working chute equipped with a squeeze, head gate and landing ramp, 2. sorting and holding pens (i.e., a corral), and 3. /a-livestock scale. The Working Chute A working chute, at least 18 feet long, equipped with a head gate and a crowding pen to fun- nel cattle into the chute, is most- satisfactory. More' pens, sort- ing arrangements, and corral layout will depend on your own herd needs. The working chute is needed in every operation. The working chute should be 24 inches wide and at least 18 feet long. A concrete floor in the chute will avoid a problem of mud. A sloping sided chute can be made narrower at the bottom, preventing calves from turning around. Cattle handle more smoothly if the lower half of the chute is nearly solid.Head gates can be constructed easily on the farm. - A nose snubber of bent pipe is a useful addition to hold an animal's head firmly. Install a yard light above the chute for night work and a weather-proof plug for electric cattle tools. Sorting gates should -be in,- stalled in the working chute. The solid blocking gate on a greased pipe simplifies individual sorting with a minimum of excitement and injury. A livestock scale can be built into the chute and, while such a scale will only weigh one animal at a time, cattle can be weighed very efficiently with this equip- ment. Weighing cattle to assess growth rates and market weights is a sound management practice. The squeeze and head gate is normally found in front of the cattle scales and from this point cattle can either be cut into a holding pen or directed up a leading ramp onto a truck. Many corral arrangements are possible. The working chute may be at one side of the corral or in the center. It may be lqcated inside a shed along one wall. When planning a corral, first determine the number and size of pens you will need. The holding pen should provide at least 20 square feet per animal The pens that animals are sorted into may be smaller - 10 to 15 square feet -per head if held for a short time only. Plan your corral to fit-with your other facilities.Provide easy access to your lots and conven- ient truck access to your corral. Be sure the corral is in a well drained area. Properly arranged, your cor- ral will give you facilities for: 1. examination and treatment by a veterinarian, 2, dehorning, 3. sorting, 4. weighing, 5. tattooing or branding, 6. artificial insemination, 7. treatment for parasites, 8. pregnancy testing, 9, implanting, '10. castrating, 11. vaccination, 12. taking temperature.
