The ProWay permanent 40ft sheep and goat bulk handler streamlines drenching, vaccinating, capsuling, mouthing, back lining, jetting and tagging, making it an essential part of your sheep handling system.
Operators guide sheep or goats into the race section of the handler in groups of 20-30, depending on size and wool. Next, the grated floor lifts hydraulically, raising the animals to the operator’s waist height. Suspended by their underside, the sheep and goats become passive when caught in a group, in a natural position. Just as with shearing, the animals become submissive when properly held.
The 40ft permanent sheep and goat bulk handler positions the animals optimally, making it ideal for most husbandry operations. Its design prevents sheep and goats from tunneling or burying their heads, reducing the chance of missing stubborn animals. Consequently, the handler ensures the animals receive the correct dose or have treatments applied accurately as they remain confined and well presented.
The design of the 40ft sheep and goat bulk handler maximizes throughput with quick, labor-efficient handling and filling times. It significantly reduces operator fatigue and the need for physical strength. The sheeted sides of the handler keep operators separated from the chemicals being applied, thus minimizing contact with the sheep or goats and lowering the risk of injury.
The 40ft permanent bulk handler is user-friendly. One operator can manage it easily as it fills quickly and allows access to all sheep from one side. Additionally, it functions effectively with two or more operators since both sides of the handler can be used to access the animals, making it versatile for different handling scenarios.
