Anyone every made a good squeezer?
Jake is thinking on a Formost for $8500
We have both the self catcher, and a manual gate.

Years ago I made a chute with a side that would open and a palp door access. The idea was to swing the side gate in to make a half-assed squeeze chute, hoping to keep calves from turning. Never worked as well as I hoped. Now we use a Q catch with an adjustable width alleyway, very happy with it.

I can't make a web image show here. Jake wants a chute like the vet uses, but no wheels.

I just have a wooden chute with a good headgate attached to the front.
