887600 Lamb & Kid Sling In Stock 1.0 $9.00

Common Uses

Carrying & weighing newborns.
Specs

  • Soft heavy duty mesh
  • Strong nylon straps
  • Velcro to adjust to animal
Benefits

Key advantage is that the ewe or doe can see, hear and most importantly smell them and more readily follows. This is vital for preserving the mother/offspring bond. Less human smell on newborns reduces risk of abandoned lamb(s)/kid(s).
How to Use

  1. Place mesh under newborn's belly.
  2. Pull handles up on both sides of the animal.
  3. Adjust the Velcro chest strap to fit the animal.
Precautions

Make sure animal is centered in the sling. If they start to slide re-adjust sling.
