Knowing the weight of your sheep or goat is important for good animal husbandry. It allows you to properly dose medications, as well as track the productivity of your animals. Since most of us do not have a livestock scale on the homestead, we need a different method. Come along with me and my Katahdin ewe, Thyme, and we will teach you how to get a good weight for those records by using just a tape measure and a calculator.
This is Tip #1 in a new series... Homesteader Help in a Hurry.

I love to hear from you so leave those comments and feel free to ask plenty of questions. I am here to help you get started on your homesteading, money saving, home economics journey.

Tape Measure Weight Formulas

Sheep and Goats
A x A x BC / 300 = approximate weight in pounds.

Horses
A x A x BC / 330 = approximate weight in pounds.

Pigs
A x A x BC / 400 = approximate weight in pounds.

(Add 7 pounds to pigs under 150 pounds in weight)
