hmmm....how will the vet wrap work? the horse can still get its head through the bars and will rub off the vet wrap, and you are going to spend a butt load of money on vet wrap, which isn't cheap anymore. Seems like a temp. solution when you need a permanent one....putting mess wire on the outside of the corral would probably be your best best and cheapest in the long run. JMO

It's already gray from the metal and breaking off where he makes contact. What should I put in the top two spaces of each panel to keep his hungry little head inside where it belongs?
