Trimming Stand
Our trimming stand keeps animals secure while you trim at a comfortable height.
- For clipping, shearing or foot trimming sheep and goats.
- Securely holds polled or horned sheep and goats (chain fits around back of the animal’s head).
- Easy-to-turn thumbscrew for quick adjustments between tall or short animals.
- Fits everything from Shetlands to Suffolks.
- Hot-dip galvanized for years of use.
- Folding carry handle prevents legs being caught.
Need a milking stand? We’ve introduced a milking headpiece that fits neatly onto our trimming stand to securely hold nannies at a comfortable height.
Common Uses
- Animals are restrained at a comfortable level for the user.
- Allows a free hand for new shearers to use shearing machines or hand shears.
- Fine tune your show animals appearance with a 4000c clipping machine and small clippers, or get the right shape with wool cards. Focus on fitting the animal and not holding them still.
- Having an elevated animal makes foot trimming much easier. Pinchers, knives and trimmers can be deftly used with lowered risk to animal or user.
- Again, saves your back and body from stress or strain.
Specs
- Folding carry handle on the stand and ramp prevents sheep from getting their legs caught.
- Stronger mounting points for the side rails (old style could easily be bent if stand was dropped on them).
- Side rails extend further into mounts to prevent them from coming out when leaned on.
- Better fit of headpiece in the stand (old style tended to be loose).
- Improved headpiece securing bolt (easier on the fingers than old style).
Hot-dip galvanizing ensures an attractive appearance and the lowest cost per year of use. (Hot-dip galvanized steel resists rusting longer than painted steel.)
Trimming Stand:
- 48" long x 20" wide.
- Includes the headpiece but not the ramp or side rails.
- Stands 22" off the ground.
- Adjustable headpiece.
- 1" x 1" square tube is 43" long (measured from the bottom of the headpiece).
- Thumbscrew enables users to adjust the front vertical bar up or down to fit most sheep or goats.
- Galvanized.
- 25" tall x 21-1/2" wide.
- Side rails fit securely to the stand to reduce animal movement.
- Reduces risk of accidental falls from the platform.
Optional Ramp:
- 48" long x 20" wide.
- Reduces effort and risk of injury to both animal and user (often encountered when lifting animal onto a stand without a ramp).
- Ramp hooks directly into the diamond mesh on the trimming stand floor.

Received in a timely manner, and we are very happy with the quality. Very well built.
Carisa S from Vermont
Really makes trimming toenails much easier. A bit tough to secure a short nosed goat, but likely our technique shortcomings vs equipment. Love it!
Sona P from Tennessee
Great investment. Heavy duty, but the pieces individually are not to heavy for this disabled female to lift. I run Nigerian Dwarf for milk and they liked it just fine as well.
Patricia H
I LOVE these rails. These are the only ones that have a center bar for young stock!
Brandon S from Tennessee
This is a very well made stand and makes trimming hooves much, much easier.
It can be a hassle to get a large, unwilling goat onto the stand, so I will probably end up buying the ramp too. Possibly the side panels as well.
If I had to be critical of something, I would say that the metal tube the legs are made of do not have caps. However, it makes no difference at all beyond possibly picking up a little mud.
Highly recommend.
