Definitely considering it but the ones I was thinking of getting was told that they were too slippery by a man who has them losing a cow or 2 every year from slips

Easy started Deutz here on feeder ,she started getting real lazy so i did a voltage drop test , i was loosing 0.75 volt on earth side it was earth lead to block connection .For the test with multimeter set to volts start with one lead on negative battery post and the other on starter body engage starter to turn over engine the meter should read less than 0.5v if higher the problem is in negative side now try meter lead on positive battery post and other lead to threads of positive bolt on starter ,engage starter if more than 0.2v reading positive side is loosing voltage . Good voltage drop test clips on youtube . Some case /international need stop lever in a certain position to activate excess fuel for starting . enjoy your videos .

@Kavanaghfarming upstands might be the best solution rather than blocking the ridge fully. Should be a well enough ventilated shed anyhow with the open feeding area. Damp bedded area for calves would be a disaster so anything to prevent that would be needed.
