We have been actively AI'ing cows and have also just did our spring work of cows, calves, and bulls through our Arrowquip crush and raceway. I have to say it was done effortlessly and the most efficiently that we have done in years.

Interested in the difference between q -87 and q74 series
Hi Todd, here is a video showing the differences between the Q-Catch 87 Series and the 74 Series!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZfsZ6G5BrU
The Q-87 portable chute and alley is one of my best purchases in some time. We have found it to be the safest way to vaccinate any and all of our beef animals from calves to bulls. When they enter the alley and are weighed they remain calm going thru the chute and are restrained for shots and wormer application. It has given us as well as the cattle a far superior sense of safety than what we were used to. Really are satisfied with this purchase !
I am really pleased with my new portable Q 87 cattle chute and alley. It makes working the cows, calves and bulls much easier as well as much safer. I have been maintaining this herd since 1984 and this is my first chute of any kind. The cattle move through and stay calm from entry til exit. Also I have the Gallagher herd management and weigh system. This combination is really a great system. This past Saturday we ran them all through for vaccinations, weighing and wormer application and it was another enjoyable experience using this setup. Thank You Arrowquip !!!
