POINTS TO THINK ABOUT

• Bull pens are best positioned to allow the bull to see other cattle and general farm activity
• Pens should be a minimum of 1500mm high
• Vertical gaps in between partitions and gates should be no more than 100mm
• Rails should be a minimum of 48mm dia
• External doors and gates must be lockable and stockproof
• Penning should allow the bull to be fed and watered from the outside of the pen and incorporate a yoke or method of securing the animal using the nose ring
• A separate exercise yard with entry controlled by a gate operated from outside the pen is recommended to allow bedding up or cleaning out whilst the bull is contained in a separate area
• A refuge area is required with means of offering unobstructed escape safely from the pen
