Dry sow tents

[O'Reilly]

Hi, years ago I remember seeing tents for outdoor sows like a marquee roof on big bale walls, but I cannot find them on tinternet now, only ones that are like portable buildings. I am not in the pig game, but am looking for them for calves. Can anyone help please?
Thank you

Try John Harvey Engineering, Parham, Suffolk.

I might well have some for sale early next year.

Now could this be of use?

No footings, no building work, portable, relatively cheap, storage to hand, coloured to blend into rural landscape?
Multiple uses. Would it need consents?

I know exactly what you mean, Dents Ltd used them & packington pork still do. Maybe contact packington & ask for supplier.

As an aside, I was in one of those tents when I learnt my missus in labour with our first!!

Pretty much only John Harvey doing pig tents now.

Pretty much only John Harvey doing pig tents now.

That’s who I’d recommend. You’ll find him through google. From Parham, Suffolk. Great quality gear.
I’m probably selling about 20 early next year if you can wait.

I must be getting old. I keep repeating myself!

Is anyone selling any pig tents ?

I like the look of the John Harvey ones that Packington Pork use

Google pigworld equipment for sale, usually a few sow tents for sale on there,

Glendale Engineering made pig tents that you could use bales as for walls, however I think they mainly concentrate on building construction frames now and any livestock stuff is well down the priority list if you were looking for them- and that's assuming they still make them.
