Anyone use any brand that they would recommend? I am looking at some locally,on Craigslist, and the brands vary, as do the manual or auto head gate option. I have heard some brands are hand/finger pinchers. Would like to avoid those!
I would be using it for AI breeding heifers and cows, and de-horning some larger feeders. Maybe 12-16 animals a year, for me personally, and then a close friend of mine would borrow it and run about 125/150 head a year through it.
Of course i am looking for an affordable one and all, since I am looking at used ones. But, some new Tartar ones are only about $2k new; I do not know if they are junk or not. I mean, there must be reason they are cheaper?
I appreciate any opinions or comments,as I have honestly never used one before.
Thank you.
