Small Ruminant Bulk Handler
The Small Ruminant Bulk Handler (SRBH) is an all Australian designed and built mechanical V Race handler for sheep and goats. Designed to improve safety of both operator and animal, the SRBH is fully mechanical providing flexibility of location on your property.
With a 6m long working area the SRBH allows you to drench, tag, mark and health check larger numbers of animals, quickly and safely. V baffle sides that have an adjustable width for different breeds and a drop away floor, make restraining animals easier and safer, and remote operation end gate operation makes work processes smoother with less energy expended by the operator.
Designed for and tested in Australian conditions and Australian livestock the Small Ruminant Bulk Handler is a cost effective solution for eID tagging requirements.
Constructed from 100% Australian Steel, with paint and flooring both Australian made inputs. Built on site in southern Queensland and backed by an Australian customer service team.
