Calving/Maternity Pen
Green tubular steel calving pen against white background

Herding a cow into a small pen then restraining it to help deliver the calf and/or aid in nursing can be difficult and dangerous, requiring quick movement and strength. A Calving/Maternity Pen, consisting of steel-tubed panels, automatic head-gate, sweep-gate, and rear-access door, is designed to solve this problem. The sweep-gate has a lower level that can be opened to give the new-born access to nurse, and the rear-access door is designed to provide safer entry to assist with delivery, if necessary.

Estimated Cost Cost range: $3,500-$6,000

Limitations Limitations Addressed by Product: Lower extremity, Upper extremity, Strength/endurance, Back
