Me neither, but have often been reduced to using pallets in an emergency and they do an excellent job.  I put metal hurdles outside to be weathered and sunned clean once lambing's over but it doesn't work so well with wood.

Very clean too.  Always important at lambing time.

Yep looks good. I've been rendering around the kennel block this week, painting it tomorrow so we will have somewhere power washable for the pens (don't ask where the dogs are going that week...)

Quick question - are the pallets white and gold or blue and black?  ;) For some reason it's hard to tell in the photo?  :innocent:

As it seems to be an invisible pen, how many pallets per pen?? What size are the pallets? I am thinking of doing similar this week as due to lamb end of next week. My eyesight is poor so if it is possible to enlarge the picture that would be fabulous!
