Overview

8-PEN – Show Pro Pen Trailer

The Bar-M 8-PEN Show Pro Pen Trailer is built for livestock families who demand comfort, convenience, and durability at every show. Designed specifically for hauling pigs, sheep, goats, and other show livestock, the 8-PEN combines a versatile livestock layout with premium features that help keep animals comfortable and exhibitors organized wherever the road takes them.

Constructed with an all-aluminum frame and Bar-M’s durable Shelby flooring system, the 8-PEN is engineered for years of dependable service. The trailer features eight individual pens with a convertible pen system that can be configured to fit a variety of livestock sizes and hauling needs. Drop-down feed windows, roof vents, and fold-down lower air spaces provide excellent ventilation to help keep livestock comfortable during transport.

The spacious front tack area offers plenty of room for feed, supplies, tack, and show equipment, while a walk-through door provides easy access between the livestock and storage areas. Standard features such as air conditioning, insulated walls and ceiling, LED lighting, and multiple 110-volt outlets help create a comfortable environment whether you’re traveling, preparing animals, or spending long days at the show grounds.

A full-height side ramp, rear 50/50 doors with sliding windows, torsion axles, aluminum wheels, and premium aluminum construction throughout make the 8-PEN one of the most versatile and user-friendly livestock trailers available.
