Does anyone know where I can purchase a stand that keeps lambs from moving?  I currently have a stand that we use for shearing but I'm looking the stand that has enclosed sides along with clips for the halter to train lamb to stand still. I've seen them before but don't know the name of the stand so I can't find it online.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I have seen the Sharp Chuters in person. They aren't cheap, but they are pretty cool. And they work.

How much are they?]

I'm actually interested in this product.
I would like to hear more feedback on the Sharp Chuter from those who've seen it in action. Does it really help?

When I saw it, it was around $800. That was two or three years ago. We have used a homemade version and yes, they do work. Helps especially in breaking lambs that are heavy headed or pull back.
