    Ie flip the gate / gates
    And while "dragging " the pen lift the skids a few inches in the direction of your tow
    Maybe even consider putting some flat bar skids on the corners where you've cut the bevel they don't have to be too long

    Thanks for sharing as you probably have heard from other people. It is really interesting to see you guys solve problems with your animals in moving them or feeding them or whatever is needed. I'm so glad things went well with separating her. ❤❤❤👳‍♀️❤❤❤

    I think some simple sheets of hard plastic nailed to the underside of the "sleigh" tips would help it glide over the grass. Something simple like those flexible, thin plastic cutting boards. I always wondered why homesteaders never put glide strips under their pens as they move them around so much. Try it!

    When moving somethnig like hat mobile pig pen, the lower part isn't braced, as you could see. Put in some temp cross bracing to make sure it doesn't fold in. Put them on with screws, move it, and when finished, take them off.

You would know! Have a happy 2025!

    Dr. Pol on National Geografic invented a really simple way to fix that prolapse. A piece of PVC with a groove inserted and wrapped a rubber band around it. The prplapse will die and fall off.

    • @deidreschofield7733
      @deidreschofield7733 13 днів тому +1

      That is a common and very effective method of repairing a prolapse and does not require sedation. Not sure if vets in the Northeast would do something like that. I allows the pig to defecate and when the prolapse is healed the PVC falls out.
