Portable Shelter Built With Feeding Floor BUILDINGS Livestock 34-2-27 This portable shelter and feeding floor mounts on skids so it's easy to move from place to place with no need to clean out manure.
Lerch's Barnlot Ltd., Hillsboro, Ohio, says the trend of smaller farms, and producing your own meat, has sparked growing demand for the portable livestock buildings.
The 8 by 16-ft. combination shelter and feeding floor is popular with people who want to feed out a hog or two, and Lerch says some customers use them for calves as well. The shelter comes with a slotted floor, which eliminates the need for bedding. Also, manure removal isn't a problem because the unit can be skidded to a new location any time you want.
The portable shelters are available in various heights for horses, cattle, sheep and hogs. Shelters can also be ordered with no floor at all.
An 8 by 16-ft. hog shed with pen sells for $995. An 8 by 24-ft. hog shed with pen and feed floor sells for $2,495.
Horse stall buildings, run-in shelters, portable board and batten buildings, hog sheds, and a variety of chicken coops and sheds are also available.
