Sheep farming requires facilities that can adapt to every stage of production, including lambing, milking, shearing, and daily herd management.
We design modern sheep barns that simplify everyday operations while providing a healthy environment for your animals. Our layouts are carefully planned to minimize stress during handling and routine management.
When required, we incorporate milking parlours along with secure handling areas for veterinary care and flock management.
Each barn is equipped with an efficient ventilation system that effectively removes moisture and ammonia, helping reduce the risk of respiratory illnesses, particularly in young lambs.
Durable concrete flooring makes manure removal easier, and we generally recommend ceiling heights of approximately 3 metres (10 feet) to provide sufficient clearance for tractors and cleaning equipment.
The wall materials we use are specifically selected to withstand moisture and the harsh conditions created by livestock housing.
The Centre d'expertise en production ovine du Québec (CEPOQ) provides comprehensive design guidelines and layout recommendations that can be incorporated into your project where appropriate.
We build flexible lambing facilities that accommodate both individual pens and group housing, allowing you to adapt the layout to your management practices.
Our insulated sheep barns provide a controlled indoor environment for winter lambing, helping maximize lamb survival rates and improve overall animal welfare.
