Vink Calving Aid 180cm

Description

The Vink Calving Aid with Alternate Traction Ratchet is designed to assist in difficult calvings by providing controlled and effective traction. The alternate traction ratchet allows for alternate leg pulls with each stroke of the handle, mimicking the natural ‘wriggling’ action of a calf during birth, which can ease delivery and reduce stress on both cow and calf.

Constructed entirely from stainless steel, this calving aid is durable and easy to clean. The permanently attached holding frame fits over the cow’s hip bones, acting as a steady and fixed base from which the calving jack tilts and pulls, regardless of whether the cow is standing or lying down.

Key Features:

• Alternate traction ratchet for natural, alternating leg pulls
• 1800mm stainless steel shaft (30mm section) for strength and durability
• Permanently attached holding frame fits over the cow’s hip bones for stability
• Suitable for use whether the cow is standing or lying down
• Developed after extensive research into safe and humane birthing assistance

Usage Instructions:

• Attach the holding frame over the cow’s hip bones
• Secure the ropes to the calf’s legs and the calving aid
• Use the alternate traction ratchet to apply controlled traction
• Ensure all equipment is cleaned and stored properly after use
