    Thank you all for your help and expertise. I guess we have decided that 5 feet would be the minimum width of the stalls. I just have to compute the appropriate length. The length will not be quite as critical since they will be at one end of the barn and could essentially have the whole length :). As we progress I will keep you all posted.

    Thanks for all of the responses. Tim our thought was to use freestall divider loops as partitions since we have access to several of those at the “right price”, meaning free. We were planning a manager in front not sure of the dimensions but thought 2-3 feet. The base would be of limestone screenings with a rubber mat on top sloped from head to tail. There would be no trough in the rear for manure though. Baystate my original thought was approximately 4ft by 8ft but I don’t want to screw this up. I would rather error on the side of too big than to small. From my dairy farm back ground I know that if there is a lunge area up front like the feed trough, it may affect the size. Just not much experience with tie stalls. Thanks again for all of the advice.

    More along the lines of stanchions. Straw is a pretty scarce commodity around here any more and we thought stanchions with sawdust should keep them cleaner at night with less bedding. Again, we just want to have them tied at night mostly.

    Well I have determined its not a 14a, I got a manual for the 14 and the demensions are way to small and some of the sprockets are different. Still not sure what model but would like to know so I can get the right manual.

    Thanks, Zac

    sounds like the 14A, if it doesn’t have a seat and pole.
