Livestock Handling Facilities

It is paramount that livestock handling facilities are well designed for safe, effective animal flow and that they require low maintenance.   Over the past 50 years there have been many improvements and Leask Engineering offer a variety of designs to suit every herd size and budget.  

Well designed and functional yards not only save money and time, but more importantly help prevent injury to workers and animals. Undue handling stress or improper conditions can reduce the weight and lower the general health and productivity of your livestock and ultimately decrease your income.

Design options include:

Circular or rectangular yards, posts and railings

Standoff, holding and handling areas

Entrances, exits and races 

Feed pads and passages

AI Races with Drop Rails & Adjustable Breast Rails 

Vet races, drop rails and side access gates 

Cam Action Headlock Gates

Calf Loading Platforms

Manual or Pneumatic Drafting Gates
