Calf head catch
This is nothing special, but gets the job done. Vaccinations, disbudding, whatever. When disbudding I will stand one side of the catch lean over and burn the horn buds on the other side. It's small so they eventually grow out of it...Topside

great idea Topside! I'll have to build one. If you hadn't titled the OM as calf head catch, I'd thought you were putting the pigs in a stanchion for milking. LOL!
