Shepherdsmate Forcing Pen

Shepherdsmate Forcing Pen

with Swing and Glide Gate

A 16 foot circular forcing pen is situated behind the race to hold the sheep in place before guiding them into the race.

The the sides are sheeted with curved Light-weight, UV-stabilized plastic panels, so the sheep cannot look out this help speed the movement of the sheep through the race.

The swing and slide gate moves in a clockwise direction until the pen is empty and then you slide the gate through its own pivoted hinge this means you are not pulling the gate against the incoming sheep and you are able to easily fill your forcing pen again.
