Benefits
- Inexpensive and durable; we challenge anyone to match Premier’s combination of cost and quality.
- Having an elevated animal when foot trimming saves your body from stress or strain. Pinchers, knives and trimmers can be used with lowered risk to animal and user.
- Restless animals don’t like to stand still. A platform restraint allows a free hand when using shearing machines or hand shears.
- Fine tune your show animals appearance by focusing on fitting the animal—not holding them still.
- 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.)
- Lightweight design is easy to carry and store.
- SHIPS FREE via Ground Service within the contiguous USA.

This is an excellent stand for an excellent price. Very affordable for beginner goat farmers/showers. I’m excited to purchase milking head pieces for it when our Nubians are able to be milked!
The only issue we had was grinding off a few very sharp edges that came from factory. That only took us a few minutes to complete!

We purchased this stand for our market lambs for the fair. It folds up which makes it easy for storage and carrying, and not too heavy. We purchased the side rails. The stand is a little high and without the side rails our shearing would not be as successful. The lambs bump up against them which helps them center back on the stand. If your lambs are heavy you might want a ramp. We use our dogs car ramp to get the lambs up. The head piece works great. We added a small carabiner after the chain is secured around the head them chin for under the chin piece to secure the chain more.
We love the stand and recommend it. It’s a great product!

Not happy with material and set up. The metal is soft, so that my 150 lb sheep broke the side support; the detachable rail slot piece of metal ripped and the sheep was injured (leg laceration) and fell off stand. The surface is the diamond cut design made for traction, but is too sharp and the sheep do not like the rough feel on their feet, and do not want to climb the ramp.

My wife and I look for products that make it efficient, smarter, fun and safe to manage our flock of Finnsheep. This product fits the bill. We were able to easily move between movable grazing pens to our rams. Once we figured how to walk our rams up the ramp they were secured by the head piece. Took a couple of trys to get the head piece hight adjusted correctly and the chain set tight enough to hold, and loose enough for rams to breath and feel comfortable. Side rails do slip out for better access, and the ramp is also removable. I may add a ratchet strap between the rear of rails as a back stop? Maybe something in the side rails to keep them from coming out when you need them as a grab rail. Overall it made hoof trimming much easier for a couple over 50. Less bending over!

This stand is overly tall and hard for my dairy goats to get up on with a full udder. I did not order the ramp after seeing reviews of it coming loose. I can’t take the chance of it coming off with a 200 lb Nubian doe walking on it. I ordered the head piece for dairy goats and am VERY dissatisfied with it. My goats can wiggle it loose and get out. I can’t even use it! I am having to sit on the ground and tie them up to milk! Not a good thing for someone with back issues. Lots of money spent for a yard ornament! Very disappointed.
