Overview

The Shepherdess Starter Sheep & Goat Handling System

Running a sheep or goat operation can be rewarding, but it comes with plenty of daily challenges. From trimming hooves and vaccinating animals to managing emergencies, every job requires control and safety. That’s exactly why Lakeland created The Shepherdess Starter Sheep & Goat Handling Package — a complete solution for handling sheep and goats with confidence, efficiency, and less stress.

This sheep & goat handling system is purpose-built for small farms, homesteads, and new shepherds who want professional equipment without the oversized cost of commercial setups. At its core is the Deluxe Spin Trim Chute (DST), equipped with tires and a hitch for mobility, making it easy to reposition as needed. Paired with 8 or 14 modular Easy Panels (LKEP-8), this system creates a safe, reliable handling environment inside barns, sheds, or paddocks.

The design is compact but highly effective. Fully sheeted panels guide animals smoothly into the chute, reducing panic and keeping both livestock and handlers calm. Whether you’re handling sheep or goats, the guided flow cuts down on stress, bruising, and wasted time. That’s peace of mind for both you and your herd.

Durability is another standout. Made from powder-coated steel, this system is built to withstand the wear and tear of farm life, including rough weather, repeated use, and heavy handling. It’s not a temporary fix; it’s a long-term investment in your farm’s efficiency.

One of the biggest advantages of The Shepherdess Starter Package is its expandability. Start small with the basic layout, then add more panels or integrate with larger systems as your flock grows. That means you don’t have to replace your equipment when your operation scales — this package grows with you.

Daily life on a ranch or farm demands consistency and efficiency. With this system, you’ll no longer waste time chasing sheep or goats across open pens or relying on makeshift restraints. Instead, you’ll have a dedicated, reliable workflow area that makes animal care simpler, faster, and safer.

Whether you’re deworming goats, checking a ewe during lambing, or tagging new kids, this handling system saves time and reduces stress. It allows one or two people to complete tasks that would otherwise require three or more. That means less manpower wasted and more energy directed to other priorities on the farm.

Ultimately, investing in The Shepherdess Starter Sheep & Goat Handling Package isn’t just about convenience. It’s about building a foundation for safe, effective livestock care that protects your animals, your team, and your productivity. Over time, it pays for itself in labour savings, improved animal welfare, and reduced risks.

If you’re looking for a reliable, scalable entry point into professional livestock handling, The Shepherdess Starter Package is the solution that sets you up for long-term success.
