Sydell Spin Doctor Headgate Access Unit & 3-Way Sort – Item 0927

The Sydell 0927 Spin Doctor Headgate Access Unit & 3-Way Sort expands the capabilities of the Sydell Spin Doctor by providing controlled animal access and a built-in way to sort sheep and goats into three different directions after handling.

Measuring approximately 72 in W x 33 in D x 42 in H and weighing approximately 118 lb, the 0927 is designed specifically for integration with the Spin Doctor. It helps create a more complete working setup by controlling entry and exit while allowing animals to be directed into separate pens, alleys, or management groups after processing.

Designed for the Sydell Spin Doctor

The 0927 Access Unit is designed to work with the Spin Doctor to provide a more organized entry and exit area around the restraint unit.

It gives the handler greater control over animal movement before and after procedures such as:

• Hoof trimming
• Hoof inspection
• Health checks
• Vaccinations
• Treatment
• Identification and tagging
• General sheep and goat management

By incorporating access and sorting into the Spin Doctor setup, animals can move through the handling process in a more organized sequence.

Built-In 3-Way Sorting

A major advantage of the 0927 is its ability to function as a 3-way sort at the exit of the Spin Doctor.

After an animal has been worked, the handler can direct it into one of three separate directions, making it easier to divide livestock into different groups without catching and sorting them again later.

This can be useful for separating animals by:

• Breeding group
• Sex
• Age
• Weight or size
• Treatment status
• Market group
• Replacement stock
• Health-management group
• Other flock or herd management needs
