Tractor Mounted Hoof Trimming Chute LIVESTOCK Handling 6-4-8 A tractor-mounted 3-pt. hoof trimming chute, complete with a life-size plastic cow, attracted thousands of interested farmers at the DLG Exhibition.
It's maneuverable and will go anywhere the tractor goes. In addition, every part of the chute that touches the animal is covered by thick rubber, with no sharp edges to injure the animal. The chute is V-formed toward the center so the animal's head is slightly elevated above the body. It tilts to a full horizontal position at an ideal working height. Straps tightly hold the hooves in place. One hydraulic cylinder raises and lowers the chute.
Sells for about $1,652.
