How To Convert A Trailer To Haul Animals!

- Have you ever needed to haul some animals but for whatever reason did not have the correct live stock trailer? Using a 5x8ft land scape trailer as a base, we show you how to convert it so you can haul several types of animals. We are using it for pigs mostly, however if you wanted to haul goats or sheep you could easily add a panel to the sides and make a roof so they don't leap out.
NOTE! If you don't have a cut off wheel, you can use a hacksaw, bolt cutters, or a sawzall to cut the cattle/hog panels.

If you end up getting one of these cool little saws, leave us a comment and let us know how you like it! - Zábava
Cooler full of ice and your preferred beverage, with room for a chain saw... Got it!
I have one not from that company. And I love it At 73 I can do safely pretty much anything I want.
Awesome!
Built the same trailer conversion last year... For pigs
Oh my, the 60's music track is awesome. Great trailer! Over using, overheating.....maybe you should take advantage of that 50% off? 😉
Always good to see one of y'all's videos pop up. How everyone is doing good.
Mike! Long time no comment haha.
Everyone is doing well, thanks for asking.
We need to move our goats and were trying to come up with something. Excellent!
I'd add one more panel for the roof so they don't jump out. Goats are nimble things haha.
@@FlannelFarms - Oh heck ya! That's the reason we need a trailer to get them from one paddock to the other. Darn things keep booking it for the neighbors yard!
Smart ideas. Gonna look into the chain saw. Thanks! 👍
Sending the link to husband. Mother’s Day is few days away 😉
Perfect!
"CHAINSAW?!!!"

Man I haven't seen that movie in forever!
Good video, also I just ordered the little chain saw. Thanks
Was it still half off?
I just ordered one of them, too! I've been wishing I had something like that.
@@FlannelFarms yes, a great deal.
@@FlannelFarms Yes! So, thank you for mentioning it! I have a bunch of young black locust trees in my back yard that I've been wanting to pollard -- this will make it a lot easier (I hope -- black locust wood is pretty hard).
Love it!
Awesome
That trailer is great for pigs, but if someone was to try to haul other types of livestock, it needs either a top or MUCH higher sides. Preferably a top! Goats, and very likely sheep, would go right out of those low sides. It's a great trailer, though, just be aware of what you are hauling.
And if it was for hauling fish, then it would have to be water tight. But it isn't. He said it's for hauling pigs around his own land.
@@SamWereb Yes, I realize that, but he is also demonstrating how to build an inexpensive trailer for hauling livestock. Not everyone who needs an inexpensive trailer is hauling pigs. My comment was aimed at the people who have other types of livestock. As I said, for pigs, that's a great setup. But IF someone has (for instance) sheep or goats, they will need to do it a little differently.
So I'm glad you mentioned that, in my original filming I talked about it. However, the audio messed up badly. So in the description of the video I made a special note about that.
@@FlannelFarms I have goats, so that was my first thought when I saw what you were doing! Someone bought a calf from me last year who had done something similar to the same kind and size of trailer, but they'd used heavier panels that were taller, and put a top on them. The calf was six months old and almost too heavy for the metal floor mesh -- if someone was going to haul anything very heavy, it would be a good idea to lay some boards down on the floor.
Yep, the weight rating is the limitation. Those wheel bearings can only take so much.
Now that’s cool!!! New subscriber.
Welcome to the Flannel Fam!! I hope you enjoy our library of videos 😀
I have a 4" and 6" batteries are not interchangeable, not sure about yours. Have had mine for about 4-5 years now, usually will last several hrs just trimming up. You are right the 4 is better than the 6
I hate to be a Safety Sally, but Where is your eye protection? lol
I had it on! It was just those clear ones. I didn't use it when I was wiring. Good reminder though! Thank you!
@@FlannelFarms Didn't see them, should have known a firefighter would use them. lol
Uhhh no thanks. Music incredibly unwelcome. I made it to 1:01 and I'm gone.
To each their own. Thanks for the comment 👍
