PREMIER 1 505900 Horned Ram Shield
Horned Ram Shield #505900 & #506200
- Lay ram shield against the ram’s face with ears and horns in spaces (shown at left).
- Thread top straps through loops on each side of shield.
- Fasten buckles around chin and around throat and pull straps very snug.
The ram will not be able to see forward, so he will not be aggressive, but he
will be able to see from side to side. Check the ram after the first 24 hours
of wearing shield, to see that he has not gotten it off. If it has come off
put it on again and fasten more tightly! Please check your ram’s head
regularly for chafing, abrasions, etc., beneath the shield.
Premier recommends removing the ram shield during breeding season, as it may
slow the breeding process. You may keep the shield on the ram during breeding
if he is still behaving aggressively, and it will not interfere with breeding.
Important
Observe your rams to see if it is necessary to put a shield on more than just your most aggressive ram(s). If only the most aggressive ram is wearing a shield, the other rams may take advantage and attack this ram.

HOW TO MODIFY THE SHIELD
Make optional cuts if the shield folds too far over the ram’s eyes and blocks his side vision.
Note
- Before you cut the shield.
- Every ram’s head is different, so shields can be modified within limits to fit the ram.
- The depth that you cut will depend on the width of your particular ram’s head.
Remember
You want to block the forward vision, not the side vision. Start with small cuts, and then increase if the eyes are still blocked from the side.
