Gallagher Weighing & EID Systems for Cattle and Sheep
Whether you keep beef cattle, suckler cows, store lambs or a mixed flock, accurate livestock weighing data means better drenching decisions, tighter market timing and stronger returns.
Guessing an animal's weight costs you money. Over-drenching wastes expensive product; under-drenching builds anthelmintic resistance over time. Sending cattle or lambs to market before or after peak deadweight leaves real money on the table. Gallagher livestock weighing scales and EID systems take the guesswork out of farm management.

Do you also want to weigh your animals?
Weighing Only
For farms where animals do not have electronic ear tags. A weighing only setup lets you track individual and group weights, measure daily liveweight gain and make more confident decisions at the crush without needing to manage electronic tag data. You need two components: a weigh indicator and a set of loadbars.
- Simple to operate
- Farm proof build
- Works with the free Gallagher Animal Performance app
- Compatible with iOS and Android
Loadbars sit under your weighing platform or crush and send weight data to the indicator. Match the bar length to your platform width and choose a capacity above your heaviest animal.
If you want to add weight capture in the future, Gallagher wireless loadbars can be retrofitted without rewiring your yard. They work alongside both EID readers and connect to a compatible scale indicator.
Prefer everything in one box?
Gallagher Quick Weigh Kits bundle a W0 scale and loadbars together, ready to install straight away.
EID Only
For farms where animals have electronic ear tags and you need to collect, record and analyse individual animal data. A handheld EID smartreader scans each animal's tag as you work through them. Data syncs to your smartphone via Bluetooth and stores in the Gallagher Animal Performance app.
