Are you looking for Livestock Handling Equipment for Sheep, Goats and Cattle?

Welcome to D-S Livestock Equipment online! Livestock handling equipment is essential for managing and controlling the movement of sheep, goats, and cattle on a farm or ranch. These animals require specialized equipment to be safely and efficiently handled, especially during activities such as vaccinations, tagging and shearing. This article will explore some of the most common types of livestock handling equipment available in 2023.

Cattle Chute

One of the most popular types of livestock handling equipment is the cattle chute. This device is designed to safely and securely hold cattle while they are being worked on. It typically consists of a narrow metal structure with gates that can be opened and closed to guide the animal into the chute. Once inside, the cattle can be easily restrained using a head gate or squeeze chute, allowing farmers and ranchers to safely perform procedures such as vaccinations and branding.

Livestock Handling Systems

Another important piece of livestock handling equipment is the sheep, goat and cattle handling system. These systems are designed to help farmers and ranchers efficiently manage large numbers of livestock while minimizing stress on the animals. They typically consist of a series of gates and chutes that guide the animals through a designated path, making it easy to separate them for tagging or shearing.

Livestock handling equipment also includes a variety of tools and accessories designed to help farmers and ranchers work more efficiently. For example, scales and weigh bars can be used to accurately measure the weight of individual animals, allowing farmers and ranchers to track their growth and overall health.

Truly, livestock handling equipment is an essential component of any successful farming or ranching operation. By investing in high-quality equipment designed specifically for sheep, goats, and cattle, you can improve the efficiency of your operations and ensure the safety and well-being of your sheep, goats and cattle.

Quality Loading and Hauling Equipment Helps With Fall Transition

As the warm winds and sweet grasses of summer gradually give way to the bracing wind and tumbling leaves of fall, many livestock operations will start to move their herds toward winter grounds and shelter. In the northerly latitudes, the seasonal transition might also call for dividing herds into groups that can be kept indoors during the deepest cold of winter.

Of course, minimizing stress is important for maintaining healthy animals. With inclement weather looming on the horizon, efficiency in sorting, loading and eventual hauling become critical both for the well-being of the animals and the profitability of your operation.

Here at D-S Livestock Equipment, we have been providing quality equipment to goat, sheep and cattle operations since 1982. Our decades of experience help us streamline the process to deliver the equipment to you in as timely a manner as possible.

We maintain a large inventory, which allows us to ship orders faster than most of our competitors. Our products can be shipped throughout the United States as well as internationally. Up to 95% of our orders ship within the first 24 hours.

Our LR96 portable loading ramp is designed to be durable enough to move large numbers of sheep and goats. Its 10-inch wheels help maintain comfortable balance and ease of movement, allowing you to quickly reposition the unit for loading into a livestock trailer. The unit can be adjusted to five different height settings, depending on the loading area. The angled sides also help prevent a spooked animal from turning around.

For moving small numbers of sheep or goats, we also offer truck boxes in three convenient sizes. The TR36, TR46 and TR48 all come with a 24-inch wide door with a spring-loaded latch. The bars are tightly spaced to reduce the chances of a smaller animal inserting its head or getting a limb trapped. It can be easily installed in a truck box in just a matter of minutes. Complete assembly only requires eight bolts.

After you are done sorting, loading and hauling the animals, the truck boxes can be easily disassembled to be stored until spring.

If you have a sheep or goat livestock operation and you need quality loading and hauling equipment for the fall transition, you should call 800-949-9997 to speak to one of the helpful representatives at D-S Livestock Handling Equipment.

Make Working with Your Animals Easier with a Better Work Platform

Here at D-S Livestock Equipment, we are committed to making high-quality products to users nationwide and around the world. Our livestock equipment is heavy duty, and we focus on making sure our products last for years to come all while pinpointing the necessities of what you need.

One of our newest products is the BB2010 billy buster work platform. This 24-inch high deck comes with a 5-foot long ramp leading up to it with an attached drop gate at the top-end of the deck. It’s the ideal tool for working on sheep and goats, making their environment stress-free and your workspace comfortable.

This platform is great for giving shots, deworming, trimming feet, ear tagging and more. The tread plate flooring prevents slipping and makes for easy cleaning on the deck and ramp, and the head cage at the front has its own unique fit. It can also swing open to allow easy access to the animal.

The manual head gate is located just before the head cage, and it opens wide enough to allow the animal to come forward without letting them all the way through, and it doesn’t need to be adjusted to size (Reminder: they do not work with horns!). The headgate easily opens and allows the animal to back up to exit from the left or right side access doors.

You may be asking how this platform is any different than regular platforms. You not only have an accessible head cage that can open, but our new version has a removable floor that allows you to place a digital weight platform, saving time by adding another element that makes it easier for you and the animal.

If you have any more questions, feel free to give D-S Livestock Equipment a call at [phone] today for more information or to ask about any of our other products. We’ll be happy to help!
