The JFC Compact Hutch can accommodate up to 4 calves simultaneously. It features a rear vent for increased ventilation and is strong, durable and weather resistant. The hutch will arrive with 2 lifting hooks on roof for ease of transport.
Calves housed in group hutches tend to experience less stress when moved into the herd. This hutch acts as transition housing to better prepare calves for the general herd.

It is important to provide the correct cow environment for the health and the progression of a herd. Suitable dairy housing is known to improve milk production and quality, reproductive efficiency as well as the overall health and longevity of the herd, which results in the economic return to the dairy. Cows that are comfortable have less stress, eat more and lie for longer, and in turn produce more milk and suffer less from lameness and other associated problems. It has been proven that there is a strong correlation between standing times of cattle and the incidence of lameness.
