The Perkinz crutching trailers come in one, two and three stand options, fast to set up and light to tow around. With no noisy air compressor and few moving parts, there is limited maintenance required; this system works with you, not against you, for fast crutching of lambs and ewes.

Designed for high sheep throughput, along with a unique upright crutching cradle eliminating dragging and bending with the added benefit that you don't end up with soaking wet jeans when crutching wet sheep.

We are often asked "How many can someone do a day?" and the general rule of thumb is once used to the system you can expect about 25-30% more than you could dragging over the board. 

Why are Contractors buying CrutchMasters?

Crutching: CrutchMaster allows you to do all the crutching operations your clients are looking for, from a bum flick on a lamb up to an eye-wig, pizzle and full crutch on a wether. The unique design allows you to crutch lambs and ewes together with no adjustment needed, eliminating the need for drafting into two lines. 

Footrot: The CrutchMaster is ideal for checking and trimming feet. It sits the sheep in a position that gives good access to all feet, turning what is arguably the worst job on the farm into an easy, quick process. 

Drenching: Drenching and vaccinating sheep while crutching, while slightly slower at the time, means you only have to handle the sheep once. The cradle allows good access to the sheep’s mouth and neck for a quick and easy check of the udder as well. 

Portability: The trailer is light and easy to tow around, making towing it from farm to farm a breeze and with no power needed for the trailer it only takes a small generator to drive the shearing plants.

Our mobile and stationary crutching systems are available from our Dunedin workshop and Australian warehouse. We also ship them around the world.
