Portable Digital Lamb Hanging Scale

The Portable Digital Lamb Hanging Scale is a compact livestock weighing tool designed for monitoring the body weight of newborn and growing lambs, goat kids and other small farm animals. Its hanging configuration allows animals to be weighed with a compatible lamb sling or cradle.

The reference digital scale has a weighing capacity of up to 120 lb and combines a metal housing, digital display, upper suspension handle and lower weighing hook. Battery-powered operation makes the unit convenient for lambing sheds, nursery pens, pasture facilities and temporary livestock weighing stations.

Regular weighing helps commercial farms monitor birth weight, growth performance and feeding management. The compact scale can also be incorporated into livestock care kits supplied for sheep farms, goat farms, breeding facilities and agricultural projects.

• 120 lb Reference Capacity: Suitable for newborn lambs, growing lambs, goat kids and other small livestock.
• Digital Weight Display: Provides a clear numerical reading for routine livestock weight monitoring.
• Compact Portable Design: Easy to carry between lambing pens, nursery areas and different livestock buildings.
• Metal Construction: Durable housing is designed for repeated agricultural use.
• Hanging Hook Configuration: Lower hook accepts compatible weighing slings, cradles or other approved suspension accessories.
• Battery Powered: Operates independently of fixed electrical supplies, making it suitable for field and barn applications.
• Auto Shut-Off: Energy-saving automatic shut-off helps extend battery operating life.
• Low-Battery Indicator: Alerts operators when battery replacement is required.
• Multi-Purpose Farm Use: Can also be used for feed, poultry and other compatible suspended weighing tasks within the rated capacity.
• B2B Supply Options: Scale, sling, cradle and livestock-care kit configurations are available according to project requirements.

The scale is suspended vertically from a secure support. A compatible lamb sling or cradle is attached to the lower hook and the scale is prepared for weighing before the animal is placed in the support.

When the lamb is lifted clear of the floor, the suspended load acts on the internal weighing sensor. The electronic system converts this load into a digital weight reading displayed on the LCD screen.

For reliable results, the scale should remain vertical and free from contact with gates, walls, flooring or other structures while the reading is taken. The animal should be supported securely and handled calmly throughout the weighing process.
