Calf catcher .......... anybody using one?

I still like the Soderglen design - looks simple but strong. Bigger wheels than some of the side mounted versions have and with the catching door that opens up it looks less likely to get damaged on rough terrain that the open forward, vertically mounted type.

We used it yesterday for the first time on a cow with twins... worked great on rough pasture plus had room to move the twins back to a holding area. It will take some time to get used working with this outfit but I can definitely see the benefits, the cow was able to come up and sniff her calves and not be alarmed and both my wife and I felt safe when working on the calves(not having to look over your shoulder every other second)
