1 Premier Hanlin Equipment A system that works at low prices! For years we were tol: Your equipment is reat but it s expensive! Back then we ha no options. Now we o. We can now offer it for much less so much less that we can, if your orer is lare enouh, ship alvanize equipment to you for the same cost that you woul pay at a show for painte equipment with less hassle for you. Why all proucers nee a hanlin system How o hanlin systems work? It never ceases to amaze us that so few US sheep an oat proucers have serious hanlin setups an fewer still have a oo one. Visit any sheep operation in Enlan, Australia or New Zealan an you will fin such setups be it mobile or fixe. But not in North America. Here are a few of the benefits Treat more animals in less time. Treat, sort, eworm an/or ta with little risk of inury. Requires less strenth, effort an frustration to treat animals. Less stress on animals, you an your family. Because you control the animals (instea of the other way aroun), workin them is more satisfyin. Keeps more animals alive an thrivin. Why? Because ewormin, vaccinations, foot treatments, sortin, etc. can all be one when the animals nee it. No nee to wait until the entire onfarm wrestlin team is available. Goo hanlin systems work with animal instincts to make animals make the choices that you/we want. Livestock, because they are prey animals, try to keep their istance from threats. So they prefer to: Move from smaller to larer spaces. Avoi people an os (threats!). Follow each other when threatene even if they can t see where the lea animal is oin. These basic points ictate ate choices. Open-bar or wele-wire panels allow animals to see each other. So animals feel safe an move reaily into pens with open walls. Conversely, soli panels block vision. So animals feel less safe an move towar openins. That s why chutes have soli panels to encourae forwar movement towar ayliht. Hanlin Equipment Comparison Chart Premier s Hot-ip alvanize. This protective zinc coatin resists rust for ecaes if kept out of wet manure. Hot-ip alvanizin creates a professional, polishe look that enures years of use. Other s Often painte steel. In humi areas, painte steel equipment rusts, corroes an weakens more rapily. Paint tens to chip after a few uses, epletin the imae of your new investment. Corruate 22-aue tin provies the strenth neee without the excess weiht. Chute sies are soli sheet steel effective, but heavy an cumbersome. Oval-shape connection offers more foriveness on uneven roun. Roun connection systems are ifficult to line up on uneven roun. Extensions available to increase 36" panels to 45". The 45" panel/ate intimiates oats an tall/athletic sheep. Heiht of chute panels is fixe. Tallest panels are 40" to 42" won t stop some oats an rams from umpin them. Frames are mae of heavy-aue steel to hanle impact an strain. Gates may lack the strenth neee to enure pressure of lare sheep.

2 The parts of a oo hanlin system Gatherin/Holin Pen(s) Able to receive & hol entire flock. Has open sies to encourae animal entry. Can be wire panels, bar ates, HT woven wire or opensie boars. Has woo posts for strenth. Are at least 10 ft wie (to encourae rapi entry an movement) an not more than 20 ft wie (so one person can force animals forwar). Is rectanular or funnel-shape to enable small batches to be squeeze by ates, os or people into a forcin pen. Often iviable into multiple pens. b.. Forcin Pen Animals enter from atherin pen. Entry controlle by a hine ate. Small size makes it hihly effective as a catch pen for iniviual treatment. Bule esin an curvin, soli walls invite animals to enter treatment chute. a.. Treatment Chute Can be either narrow (18 to 21 in.) shown here or wie (36 to 40 in.). A wall/panel heiht of 36 in. is oo for shorter brees an for those who work from outsie the chute. Tall or lively animals nee taller chute panels which, in turn, require workin insie the treatment chute. Have quick-actin ates at each en to entrap animals temporarily. Combination of soli walls an animals packe in front an behin in the chute severely reuces the animals ability to move about thereby allowin humans to hol them to vaccinate, ta, rench, bran, weih, etc. Sort Pens Fille by sort ate on front of sinle file treatment chute. Are open-sie to encourae entry flow an movement. Have siewalls & ates tall enouh (45 in. plus) to prevent escape. Have hine ates between pens for easier sortin an movement of roups. Gates that, until you finalize the layout an her/flock size, allow chanes in layout an pen size. c. i.. e.. f. k. (lare photo) Hanlin yars at Premier.
