ABSTRACT:
A head gate for pen confining structures is disclosed. The head gate utilizes two synchronized gates with a gap there between. When the animal enters the gate, the gap is lodged in its open position. As the animal moves forward, the neck of the animal fits between the gap of the closing gates and rotates the gates forward and shuts. After the gates have closed, the animal cannot remove his head for the gates are held in position by a stop mechanism.
