The corrals at the ranch have been solid board fences that gave cattle protection when the calving season was in the winter and early spring. Our calving season has been moved to late spring and the cows are not brought into the corrals. These corrals are now 35 to 70 years old and needing to be replaced. We are weaning calves at the ranch this year instead of taking them to a feedlot, so we have started replacing corrals so we can make the calves more secure as they adapt to new surroundings. As you can see the fence design is more open and less expensive, but still a lot of work to build.
