Frequently Asked Questions
How do you prevent calves or lambs from getting stuck in larger yard setups?
The key is matching panel spacing and gate design to the size of the animals. Smaller stock like lambs and young calves can easily slip through standard cattle panels or get wedged between poorly spaced rails. Look for modular systems that offer adjustable or species-specific components - like narrow-mesh panels or lamb-proof gates. Rounded corners and flush joins also help reduce injury risks. If you’re running mixed-age mobs, flexible layouts with segregated holding pens can help keep smaller stock safely contained.
Do welded feeders last longer than bolted or flat-pack options?
In almost every case, yes. Welded feeders are stronger, sturdier and far less prone to joint fatigue or loosening over time - especially when exposed to weather and daily livestock pressure. Bolted options might seem more convenient upfront, but they often come with more maintenance, rust-prone joins, and reduced long-term durability. Fully welded designs don’t rattle apart, and because there are no bolts to corrode or fail, they tend to stay in better shape for longer in paddocks and yards.
What’s the expected lifespan of a steel hay feeder with daily use?
A quality steel hay feeder, especially one made with fully welded Australian steel, can easily last 10 to 15 years - or longer with occasional maintenance. The lifespan depends on design, exposure, and how it’s used. Features like sloped roofs, drain holes and heavy-duty skids help reduce wear. Regular cleaning, avoiding buildup of wet feed, and keeping feeders off consistently boggy ground also make a difference. While cheaper options exist, investing in a robust feeder pays off in fewer replacements and less waste over time.
