The right feeding place for any barn
Any calf barn, whether it is an outdoor climate barn such as the IglooVeranda, the solid structure of a conventional barn or even just a quick barn conversion, requires a well-thought-out feeding system. This saves unnecessary walking and makes calf feeding faster and more reliable. The options available to you are as varied as your personal desires and your calves’ needs. Whether you feed your calves with the CalfExpert calf feeder or with the MilkTaxi essentially determines which feed fence you use. What matters is making the right choice without restricting your future options too much. With so much to choose from, you're spoilt for choice. Contact your Holm & Laue dealer. They know exactly what is important and you will avoid the mistakes that others have long regretted.
Safety for your calves
The H&L Feed Fence Headlocks are designed with V-shaped openings at every feeding place that allow the calves to insert their head and pull out safely. It is not possible for the calves to become caught unintentionally.
A side grate on the bucket ring and the teat protection basket on the teat bucket holder prevent milk from being stolen. This means you can also feed larger groups of different ages individually without any problems.
Rapid access
The H&L feed fence can be equipped with a rotating mechanism so that you can open it along the full front. This provides easy access to the pen for cleaning it completely. The manway with a lockable gate allows you to enter the pen and reach the calves quickly and safely.
The right feed fence for every requirement
Calves are quickly secured
Do you have a problem with reciprocal suckling? Then secure the calves in the fence for 30 minutes after feeding to prevent navel infections. The whole group of calves can be quickly secured thanks to a practical handle. Stragglers can also be secured individually.
Varied feeding place layout
The locking feed fence is designed for 6 – 12 feeding places. The telescopic system allows it to be adapted to any distance between the posts of between 2.20 and 4.40 m. An ideal solution for old buildings. Just determine the distance you need; we will gladly advise on which telescoping feed fence is best for you. Each feed fence comes with a matching stainless steel trough. It is easy to access and feed remains can be tipped out effortlessly.
