Our run system is set up to provide a passage for the animals from the field to a feedlot. This allows the herd person to look at the animal movement and eating habits. By watching them move in to eat you can tell a lot about which animals are ill, injured or uncomfortable. The runs are large enough to provide and extra pasture if needed while moving animals around. They have been designed to be large enough for a truck and trailer to drive through as well.
