Low Stress Cattle Yards Designed for 120 Head – The Stockdale Cattle Yard

The Stockdale Cattle Yard is a practical and efficient yard designed for around 120 head. While some manufacturers might classify this yard as suitable for 200 head based on its 400m² size, we take a more conservative and welfare-focused approach to ensure optimal stock comfort and handling safety.

With three pens located before the crush capable of holding 120 head and two draft pens accommodating 80 head, plus a third draft option leading back to the paddock or laneway, this yard layout supports smooth, stress-minimized livestock management.

Designed with Low Stress Cattle Yards Principles

The Stockdale yard is built to support low stress cattle yards principles, promoting calm movement and safe handling. Its capacity and drafting options provide flexibility for varied stock volumes, reducing animal agitation and improving operator efficiency.

If you are seeking a yard that balances capacity with animal welfare, the Stockdale design offers a reliable solution tailored to practical cattle management needs.

Using drone imagery, advanced surveying equipment, and precise CAD design software, we work closely with you to meticulously plan, design, quote, and install permanent cattle yards tailored to your site and livestock handling needs.

Our permanent cattle yards are engineered for long-term durability and efficiency, featuring robust 80NB pipe posts concreted in place and strong 115x42mm cattle rails—providing a truly permanent, high-quality cattle yard solution built to last for years to come.
