It is constructed from heavyweight plastic, ensuring longevity and the ability to withstand the rigors of farm use. The steel screw and nut assembly is robust, providing a secure fit when applied.

This method of weaning is known to reduce stress for both the calf and the cow, and is suitable for calves up to 18 months of age. The device's design is lightweight, minimizing discomfort for the calf. For optimal results, it is typically recommended to leave the weaners on the calves for 4-7 days before separating them from their mothers.

The bull ring, typically made of brass, is a longstanding tool used in cattle management. Its primary function is to ensure safety and control over bulls, particularly in situations where they may become aggressive or need to be led during shows or veterinary procedures. The brass material is chosen for its durability and resistance to corrosion, which is essential given the demanding conditions of farming and livestock management. The insertion of the ring is usually performed by a veterinarian when the bull is between nine and twelve months old, ensuring minimal discomfort with professional handling. The size of the ring can also play a role in the visual presentation of the bull, with larger rings often making the animal appear smaller, which can be an advantage in certain breeding contexts. Overall, the use of a brass bull ring is a testament to the blend of tradition and practicality in agricultural practices. The long, sharp point cuts a clean hole Self piercing heavy duty brass.

The Calf Weaner Orange is a durable and easy-to-apply device designed to aid in the weaning process of calves. Made from virtually unbreakable plastic, these weaners are lightweight and do not cause discomfort to the animals. They are suitable for calves up to 18 months of age and work by impeding the calf's ability to suck while still allowing them to graze and have physical contact with their mothers. This method reduces the stress associated with weaning, as it prevents the calf from nursing but does not isolate them from the herd. Typically, the weaners are left on the calves for about 4-7 days before the calves are separated from their mothers, which helps them transition to feeding on grass and other solid foods. This practice not only supports the health and welfare of the calves but also contributes to the management of the herd during the weaning period Applying a Calf Weaner Orange is a straightforward process that can be done with care and attention to the calf's comfort. First, ensure that the calf is restrained safely to prevent injury to both the animal and the handler. The weaner typically consists of two pieces that clip or snap together through the calf's nostrils. Gently separate the calf's nostrils and insert the weaner, making sure that it's securely fastened but not overly tight. It's important to check that the weaner is not causing any undue stress or discomfort to the calf. After application, monitor the calf for a short period to ensure they can breathe comfortably and are able to graze and drink water without issue. The weaner should stay in place for about 4-7 days before removal, which should coincide with the separation of the calf from its mother. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult with a veterinarian if you're unsure about the process or if it's the first time you're applying a weaner Specifically designed to stop calves from suckling. Durable plastic. Easy to apply. ‍

The Cow Immobilizer, also known as the Anti Kick Bar, is an essential tool in the dairy industry, designed to ensure the safety of both the animals and the handlers during milking. These devices are robust and galvanized, catering to different animal sizes, and are instrumental in preventing cows from kicking, which can be a risk during the milking process. The use of such bars involves placing them around the cow's legs, above the hocks, to restrict movement without causing the animal distress or discomfort. It's important to use these bars correctly to avoid any potential harm; they should fit comfortably and be secured in place to minimize movement. With proper use, these tools can make the milking process smoother and safer for everyone involved. Selecting the appropriate Cow Immobilizer, or Anti Kick Bar, involves considering several factors to ensure the safety and comfort of the cattle during procedures like milking, branding, or medical treatments. Firstly, assess the size and breed of the cattle, as these factors can influence the type of immobilizer needed. It's crucial to choose a device that is adjustable and fits comfortably to prevent any distress to the animals. Additionally, look for immobilizers made from durable, high-quality materials to ensure longevity and effectiveness. It's also important to consider the ease of use for the handler and the immobilizer's compatibility with existing farm equipment. Always prioritize devices that have been tested and proven safe for use on animals, including pregnant cows, and ensure they do not negatively impact the animal's well-being during or after use. Lastly, consult with a veterinarian or an experienced cattle handler for recommendations on the best immobilizer for your specific needs and circumstances.  Free-running springs with 3⁄8˝ (9 mm) pin and the 45° offset of the hole series ensure ergonomic length adjustment and prevent inadvertent opening.
