These goat stanchion building plans provide step-by-step instructions for building a quality goat stanchion, which is a critical tool for every goat owner, not just for those with dairy goats. Both male and female goats require regular hoof trimming, and a stanchion makes this process much easier and can be done by just one person. Stanchions are also necessary for restraining and milking goats in the dairy goat community.
The course includes a complete list of necessary tools and materials, and the plans are available online. Upon purchase, you will have a login for your account, which will grant you access to the plans and any other courses you purchase. The stanchion features a unique variable head trap system that can accommodate goats of any size, an extra wide opening for goats with wide horn structure, and an optional foot entrapment to secure kicking goats. The extra wide construction allows for any goat to be restrained and provides additional space for bracing while trimming.
The stanchion is easy to build at home and comes with instructions for optional features for variable head capture and hoof restraint. All goat owners can benefit from using the stanchion, as it makes routine hoof trimming simple and easy. The wide platform design also makes bracing a breeze for both large and small goats.
