New build sheep shed

[Downtrodden Dad]

Depends how many sheep you are looking at but large feed passage to fit diet feeder. Walk through troughs are so last year

Thanks for all the reply’s guys. Got some good ideas off here. I’ve spoke to some people for some quotations and will keep you posted on any progress

Please tell me where are you getting the grant from ?

Capital grant (scotland) sac are putting the application in for me.

Something like a 90 X 30 will only need prior notification and probably won't need a building warrant so much easier for the grant as if the building requires pp or bw you need to have these in place before u apply for the grant.

Here is our sheep shed, not got any housed yet this year, trying to save straw and got a bit more scope from 2 years ago to run them outside for a few more weeks. Feed them a tmr. Don't generally like putting pics up of sheep housing on here- it often ends up with people with sheep sheds getting grief from others etc!

Nice setup!! Where are your individual pens? Do you have to walk them a bit once they have lambed?

Ah thanks, our handling pens/ race are usually where the tractor and feeder are sitting. We take them down and clean it and build a double row of little pens all the way up there, there is just enough room to get the bike and trailer between the little pens for taking them out.
Not long till it all starts again :-/!

Just ordered up the steel work for a 80 x 35 shed, thought I'd bring up an old thread for any ideas or inspiration any of you can provide!

dont need a lot a walk through feeders to buy a used diet feeder and it will give more room inside the shed
