SELF-CATCHING HEADGATE [1 record]

Record 1 2021-08-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Animal Care Equipment (Farm equipment)
CONT

Self-catching headgates. These are easy to operate, will seldom choke your cattle when they are securely attached and allow the rapid movement of your animals with minimal risk of balking. The headgates also come with manual controls that you can use to increase their reliability. Unfortunately, self-catching headgates are not suitable for holding horned cattle since they can cause shoulder bruises on them if they lunge at them when cocked. They also at times allow the escape of an animal.
