Equipment sale

Blyth Livestock Advisor Services (BLAS), we don’t just sell livestock equipment — we help you choose the right system for your farm and make sure you know how to get the most from it.

We supply EID equipment, weighing systems, livestock tags and DNA sampling kits for sheep and cattle, with solutions to suit both small and large livestock enterprises.

With over 25 years of practical livestock experience, we understand that technology needs to work on the farm, in the handling system and within your existing management routine.

EID can provide far more than simply identifying an animal.

Used correctly, EID allows you to capture individual animal information and turn it into useful management data.

We can supply:

  • EID tags
  • EID stick readers
  • Panel readers
  • Handheld readers
  • EID-compatible weigh heads
  • EID equipment for drafting and handling systems
  • Accessories and cables

We can also advise on how to connect your EID equipment with your existing software and farm records.


Livestock Weighing Equipment

Accurate weighing is the foundation for making better livestock management decisions.

We supply weighing equipment for sheep and cattle, including:

  • Weigh heads
  • Load cells
  • Weigh platforms and crates
  • Automatic drafting solutions

Whether you need a simple weighing setup or a fully integrated EID → weighing → drafting → data recording system, we can help you find the right solution.


Tags & DNA Sampling Kits

We also supply livestock identification tags and DNA sampling kits, helping you collect the information needed for breeding, performance recording and genetic improvement.

DNA sampling kits can be incorporated into your normal livestock identification and recording process, helping you build a more complete picture of individual animals.

We can advise on the most appropriate tag and sampling system for your requirements.


More than just selling equipment

One of the advantages of buying your equipment through BLAS is that you get access to practical livestock and technology experience.

Every equipment purchase from BLAS includes 3 months of remote per booked support

Once you’ve bought your equipment, you’re not simply left with a box and an instruction manual.

Your 3-month remote support period can help you with:

  • Setting up your new equipment
  • Connecting EID readers and weigh heads
  • Getting equipment communicating with your software
  • Understanding basic operation
  • Troubleshooting problems
  • Setting up weighing sessions
  • Data transfer
  • General questions as you start using the system

Support can be provided remotely by phone, email or online video support, depending on what is required.


Not sure what equipment you need?

That’s where BLAS can help.

There are lots of different EID readers, weigh heads, load cells, software packages and handling systems available. The cheapest option isn’t always the best option for the way you work.

We can look at:

What you’re doing now → What you want to achieve → What equipment you already have → What software you use → The best system for your farm

The aim is to provide a system that is practical, reliable and gives you useful data — rather than technology for technology’s sake.
