Creep Feeder Gate
Gives lambs and goat kids "adult free" access to creep feed and allows guard dog puppies ability to come and go from sheep/goats and food.
Benefits:
- Hot-dip galvanized products have triple the useful life in humid, acidic climates (many barns!)
- Both horizontal and vertical internal bars can be altered to allow the openings to "grow" with the lambs or kids. White plastic pipe on rods spin freely when lambs move through them.
- Can be attached to our PowerBilt® or Welded Wire Panels.

Love this for my small barn. Kids learn to use it easily and dams learn to not!

Sturdy construction, well made. I have some young ewes that are frustrated now that they cannot squeeze into the nursery/creep area. This gate keeps them OUT!

I bought two of these gates, one for lambs and one for goat kids. The gates are extremely well made, very sturdy and work exactly as I hoped for creep feeding. They arrived quickly, in perfect condition with no excess packaging.

Once I got this item, I could see its value. Wow! It’s well made and I received it quickly. Great product!

I ordered this gate in the 40" tall for our Nigerian Dwarf herd. This Creep Feeder DOES NOT work for Nigerian Dwarfs — I placed the feeder gate on one of our kidding pens with a 32" door opening, put some feed pellets in a container and 2 adult female does (2 and 3 year old) easily gained access. In order for this to work for Nigerian Dwarf goats plan on buying at least another 3 or 4 vertical and another horizonal pin at an additional cost of $56.00 and now shipping costs on top of that. This should have been noted on the description as this brings the cost up over $200 — it's well made but not happy this important detail was left out.
