"When moving from one site to the next, the entire rig (41.5 ft. long) trails behind a pickup. Total weight is 6,000 lbs. Transportation height is 27 in. Total width is 8. ft. Available options include a 12-V hydraulic pump with reservoir which lets you raise or lower the Trail-N-Catch with your pickup's 12-V battery, electric brakes, scale system and a gooseneck tongue. "The squeeze chute is large enough to handle the exotic breeds, yet Nersatile enough for calves," says Roose. Both side release gates open, allowing cattle to exit on either side."
