Hanging Sheep Feed Trough

The Hanging Sheep Feed Trough is a compact fence-mounted livestock feeder developed for convenient distribution of grain, pellets, concentrate feed and suitable mineral supplements. By positioning feed above ground level, the trough helps keep the feeding area organized and reduces direct contact between feed and bedding, manure or floor contamination.

Designed for goat-farming-equipment/" target="_blank" class="keylink">sheep barns, lambing areas, breeding pens and modular livestock housing systems, the feeder can be attached to suitable welded wire panels, livestock gates, pen partitions or structural rails. Its portable configuration makes it particularly useful where feeding positions need to be installed, relocated or removed according to flock management requirements.

• Fence-mounted design keeps feed conveniently accessible while minimizing floor space occupation.
• Suitable for grain, pellets, concentrates and selected dry mineral supplements.
• Durable trough body designed for routine livestock feeding environments.
• Smooth internal surfaces and rounded corners support convenient cleaning and hygiene management.
• Quick hanging installation simplifies feeder positioning and relocation between pens.
• Compact structure integrates easily with modular sheep pens, livestock fencing and farm building layouts.
• Suitable for sheep, goats and other compatible livestock according to feeder dimensions and farm management requirements.
• Size, capacity, mounting hardware and material configuration are customizable according to project requirements.

• Feed Trough Body: Open-top container providing convenient access to dry livestock feed and supplements.
• Reinforced Upper Rim: Helps maintain structural stability during filling, cleaning and routine animal contact.
• Mounting Points: Integrated connection positions allow the feeder to be suspended from suitable fencing or pen structures.
• Hanging Hardware: Hooks, clips or other mounting components can be selected according to the livestock panel system.
• Smooth Interior: Designed to reduce difficult-to-clean corners and simplify routine feed removal.

The trough is suspended from a livestock fence, gate or pen partition using suitable hanging hardware. Feed is manually placed inside the open basin and remains elevated from the barn floor. Animals access the feed from the pen side while the supporting panel carries the feeder load. This arrangement provides a simple feeding point without requiring floor-mounted legs or a permanent concrete foundation.

Final dimensions, capacity, material and mounting configuration are determined according to livestock type, pen structure and project requirements.

• Commercial sheep farms and breeding facilities
• Sheep barns and group housing pens
• Lambing and temporary feeding pens
• Goat barns and breeding areas
• Steel structure livestock buildings
• Modular livestock pen systems
• Quarantine, isolation and individual management pens
• Livestock exhibitions and temporary animal housing

Installation: Select a stable livestock fence, welded wire panel, gate or structural rail capable of supporting the filled feeder. Attach the hanging clips or hooks securely and position the trough at an appropriate feeding height for the target livestock.

Position Check: Confirm that the feeder remains level and stable during animal contact. Additional retaining hardware can be used where greater stability is required.

Cleaning: Remove stale or contaminated feed regularly. Wash the internal and external trough surfaces according to the farm hygiene program and allow them to dry before refilling where appropriate.

Routine Inspection: Inspect the trough body, mounting points, clips, hooks and supporting pen structure periodically. Damaged or heavily worn components should be repaired or replaced before continued use.
