Blue Leg Aluminum Crook
Common Uses
Specs

Benefits
A goat's agility, slim neck and lack of wool mean that neck crooks are often useless.
How to Use
To catch a ewe with newborn lambs on the pasture: First catch the lambs. Then lay a leg crook between the lambs and ewe with the crook head toward the ewe. The ewe will likely face her lambs. Encourage the ewe ever closer. When the ewe's front foot is near, instantly raise the crook and snare her front leg.

Very well constructed crook. I use mine for hurting docs and it works brilliantly. The creek fits around their neck just right and the length is perfect for hurting them into a pond.

In general, it is really good. I agree with Delane. Work really good for adults. Needs manual adjustment for younger lambs.

This tool is a god sent at cattle calving time. Bought this on a whim and will not do without. Very easy to catch a calf when near it's mum and no injuries when caught just above the hoof. We can treat, band and tag our calf without any chasing. It is very durable and would recommend this product to other cow/ calf operators.
