Livestock Wagon

A livestock wagon moves animals around the place without hitching a full trailer. It suits short hauls between pens and pastures, where a trailer is more than the job needs.

The wagon carries stock at a controlled pace behind a tractor or pickup, with sides high enough to hold them and a gate for loading. It is a practical tool on a place that moves cattle between pens regularly, at weaning, or when animals need to go to a different pasture.

Because it is smaller than a trailer, it fits through narrower gates and gets into pens where a big rig cannot turn. Check the floor, the gate latch and the hitch before each use. A livestock wagon only works if the animals stay in it.
