Hi-Hog 3-Section Funnel Tub
Efficient cattle handling is largely dependent on the design of your crowding tub. The half-circle version of the funnel tub provides the best of the funnel solutions because it will turn the cattle 180° to return your cattle to where they came from.
The curve of the inside funnel panel contributes to the efficiency of the crowding tub. As the pivot gate closes on the livestock the cattle will sometimes turn to face the pivot point of the moving crowding gate and can get wedged in the corner of a traditional tub. With Hi-Hog's funnel tub, the curved face of the funnel panel bends into the crowding tub and eliminates the wedge at the pivot point. With the wedge removed your cattle can focus on the exit into the working alley. The visual relationship between the crowding tub and the working alley is critically important. From the viewpoint of the cattle in the crowding tub your cattle should see clearly into the working alley. If the cattle cannot see into the alley or, if there is something in the alley that distracts your cattle, your livestock will hesitate or refuse to enter the working alley without added pressure and stress.To avoid this, the exit from Hi-Hog’s funnel crowding tub is highly visible. The curved face of the funnel panel flows seamlessly into the working alley directing the livestock clearly to the exit. |
