4' or 5' Feed Creep Panel for Sheep & Goats | Sydell #0400-4T / #0400-5T

Sydell Feed Front / Safety Zone Panel for Standard Lambing & Kidding Pens – Items 0400-4T & 0400-5T

The Sydell Feed Front / Safety Zone Panel is designed specifically for Sydell Standard Lambing & Kidding Pens. It serves two important purposes within the pen: creating a protected safety zone for newborn lambs and kids and allowing the adult ewe or doe to eat from outside the pen.

The safety-zone area gives young animals a designated place where they can move away from the adult animal and rest in a protected, warm, dry area. At the same time, the feed-front design allows feed to remain outside the pen, helping keep bedding cleaner and drier while giving the producer convenient access for feeding without entering the pen.

Designed for Sydell Standard Lambing & Kidding Pens

The 0400-4T and 0400-5T are designed for use with Sydell Standard Lambing & Kidding Pens.

The panel helps organize the maternity pen around the needs of both the ewe or doe and her newborn lambs or kids by providing:

• A protected newborn safety zone
• Outside-the-pen feeding access for the adult animal
• Easier daily feeding for the producer
• Cleaner, drier pen conditions
• A designated resting area for young stock

Protected Safety Zone for Lambs & Kids

The safety-zone section creates a designated area within the pen where newborn lambs and kids can move away from the adult ewe or doe.

This gives young stock a place to:

• Rest away from the adult animal
• Help avoid being stepped on or crowded
• Stay in a protected, warm, dry area
• Remain safely within the same pen as the ewe or doe
• Have their own designated resting space

Feed the Ewe or Doe from Outside the Pen

The feed-front design allows the ewe or doe to eat from a feeder positioned outside the lambing or kidding pen.

This provides several practical advantages:

• Helps keep spilled feed out of the pen
• Helps keep bedding cleaner and drier
• Reduces unnecessary mess in the maternity area
• Gives the producer easy access to the feeder
• Allows feeding without entering the pen
• Makes daily feeding and barn chores more efficient

During a busy lambing or kidding season, being able to feed from outside the pen can save time while helping maintain a cleaner environment for the adult animal and newborns.

Easy Drop-Pin Installation

Each panel includes two 0496 Drop Pins for connection to compatible Sydell Standard Lambing & Kidding Pen components.

The drop-pin design makes the panel easy to:

• Install during lambing or kidding season
• Remove when no longer needed
• Reposition as pen layouts change
• Incorporate into modular maternity-pen setups
