Goat and Sheep 100% Steel Shelters

 Sheep and goats are raised in all climatic zones of Midwest USA. These climatic zones are very diverse, some dry and others wet. Extreme heat is a significant characteristic of some zones, while others experience cold temperatures. Each situation has its requirements for designing and constructing optimum goat/sheep housing. The essential requirement of suitable sheep/goat housing is to alter or modify the environment for the benefit of animals and protect them from predation and theft.  Sheep/Goat housing should buffer the animal from climate extremes to reduce stress, allowing optimal animal performance in growth, health, and reproduction. The main climatic factors for protection are high and low ambient temperatures, environmental humidity, solar radiation, wind, and rain.

Additionally, shelters are essential in protecting feed and equipment from damage, saving labor, and aiding effective management, including breeding. Sheep and goat housing should meet animal requirements and serve a producer’s needs at the lowest possible cost. Small ruminant housing needs to:

• Durable  enough to last many years of usage

• Consider the number of animals to be accommodated comfortably.

• Allow freedom of movement for all animals;

• Have well-maintained dry bedding that is easy to clean. Sheep and goats do not tolerate mud well; therefore, yards and shelters should be built only on well-drained ground;

• Morning sunshine evenly;

• Well-lighted and ventilated. Air circulation, dust levels, temperature, relative air humidity, and gas concentrations should be at levels that will not harm animals;

• Suitable bedding pens for sick or injured animals far from the central stalls.
