Looks like a good, relatively inexpensive system, but wondering if anyone had any experience with them?? https://pigbrig.com/#qv

I've seen some videos. I would wonder how long it would last before it began to wear out and start to tear or come apart. At about $2,000 I wouldn't say it's all that inexpensive. I suppose relatively is a "relative" term… or should I say "nebulous"?

My buddy bought just the net and put his own post up and has caught 30 or so in it. He saw one on his neighbors land and they said they really like it ...you want pm me and you can talk to him about it. He is in Lamar County

I know someone who bought one and said it works well. I believe he did have a problem when it rained once with hogs inside. They stomped the mesh into the ground and sounds like it was a pain to get it all back in order to work correctly....not that it broke or anything, just that the mesh had to be pulled out of the muck.
I've wonder why someone hasn't made something similar, but using a standard round pen with tposts and hog panels, but then making the gate out or a nylon mesh. Basically have a mesh opening that hogs could come in, but fastened to the inside so it drops back down after they enter.

Basically have a mesh opening that hogs could come in, but fastened to the inside so it drops back down after they enter. That actually sounds like a good idea. One could make a fairly wide and somewhat tall opening, which might encourage shy hogs to go in.

Wondering if that trap can somehow be used in connection with a livestock trailer for loading up live hogs for sale at a buying fascility.
