I know it's been done before but can't find my answers.
I am needing to make or buy new pens. Run ewes in 7 lots of 100 ish plus lambs. I am/was looking to put a clamp in around 3-4k within a fixed set. Now I wonder if a big set of rappa's or scotpen would be better option.
I have watched so many videos but there doesn't seem to be much happening with the sheep. How do people get on with shedding and weighing lambs? Is foot bathing possible or a bit pointless if just going back in grass?
None of my fields are overly far away but need to go through 3 or 4 fields to get them back to steading or where my old pens are. How long does it take to set up and dismantle?
There looking about £8k which would build a good fixed set with a clamp. Would be a bit of a luxury to have mobile pens and a clamp for sure and would probably mean two trips to the set up point.
Any thoughts appreciated.
