Concentrate Feeder for calves
In suckler cow farming, the milk production of breeds that have a high daily weight gain is insufficient to maximise the full growth potential of the calves. It is recognised that it is much more efficient to provide concentrate directly to the calves than to provide the same feed to raise the milk production of the cows. So that only certain animals take this food, a selective access system to the concentrate has to be arranged. This is done by providing a so-called calf creep – the width of which must be adjustable. So that this is also possible on the pastures, a special self feeder with an integrated calf creep has been developed.
The unit stores 900 litres of concentrate, preferably in the form of pellets. The appropriate amount of concentrate is fed through an adjustable opening – which is suitable for varying pellet sizes. The self feeder – and especially the trough – has a large cover, protecting the feed from the rain. To ensure firm positioning in the pasture, the feeder stands on skids. The width of the calf creep can be regulated via 6 fully adjustable bars.
