Lambing Trailer Recommendations
« on: March 30, 2017, 07:32:16 pm »
I'm looking to buy a lambing trailer for the quad. Would anyone have any recommendations on brand or suppliers?

Thanks in advance

Depends on the size of your quad  Ifor Williams have the Q   range  or p6e   . personally I use a p6e without the canopy and mesh sides  will carry 5ewes and 10 lambs

Ditto.  The PG6 is a nice multi purpose trailer. Though I defy anyone to reverse a single axle short base from a Quad.

Haha. I started 50 years too late then. Don't suppose I have another 50 left to master the technique. Ho hum.
