    Looks slick. Often thought about building a table like that but we quit tipping and branding two years ago due to labour shortages and haven’t missed it yet. How old are your calves when you’re processing them?

      About 3 months down to 3 weeks, and yes quality labor can be hard to find.

      Wrangler jeans with price tag still on.

        You must be a Ninja warrior tagging and ringing newborn calves with the number you have.

        Most of my ribs would be broken or do you wear bull rider vest just in case.

          They’re not an issue at under a day old I find. At least I don’t have to worry about the momma cow dancing with/ on me anymore.



          This is much better than someone swinging a bat between you and momma while kneeling over the calf. Some of our angus are mean SOB’s.

          Now dealing with 3 month old calves at branding .............. you have my respect........... and sympathy.

          If you do buy it let us know how it works. Sometimes the best investments are the little things, not a big new shiny piece of iron.

            Nice revamp of the old Johnson calf table , very simple concept, have on older manual model but would be really easy to convert. Have seen them revamped and they can really put a good number of calves per hour.

              BZ WELDING CALF TABLE Due to a volatile steel market, any current listed prices are not accurate. We hope to be back to normal soon.…


              Scroll down, second video from the bottom shows them processing a couple calves.

                We run a formost self catch calf table and really like it. We have talked about adding a tipping cylinder. Ours tips the opposite direction of the picture.
