When shows wont allow trimming stands or you just dont want to put your lamb or goat back in the pen before showing, this nose loop head piece simply attaches to a gate or rail to best suit your needs. Place the nose of your lamb/goat through the nose loop and wrap the chain around the back of the animal’s head, below the ears, and attach to the other side of the loop. Make sure the chain is tight enough that the animal cannot pull back and slide their nose out of the loop.
