Several things.
1) I will NEVER haul cattle in an open top trailer or truck. No solid roof then no haul. I have seen too many cows and bulls jump/climb out over the top of trucks or trailers will open tops.
2) Every bull I have ever owned is halter broke. Moving or loading them is no issue. Just lead them on the trailer or truck. It also makes doctoring them easier too. My current bull is a 5 year old Angus bull he weight right at 2500 lbs. You can lead him right into the head gate.
Funny thing on this bull. I sold some semen from him a few years ago. I took him to Ames to be collected. I pulled up and asked them where they wanted me to unload him. They asked me what he weight. I told them. They started dragging out these GREAT big tall heavy gates and all. I asked them what all that was for??? They said to hold your bull. I told them not this bull. HECK he was standing halter tied in the front of the trailer. I just lead him right in to the collecting chute. Those guys just stood there with their mouths hanging open. LOL I understand their view point. Many LARGE bulls are hard to control. I also think that mine get used to being moved to "new" girl friends. LOL So they are pretty easy to load.
