Down Cow Hip Lifter Cattle Lift Frame 1500kg Heavy Duty Easy Operation

Description:

Cow Hip lifters are the easiest method to use and the most common on today's farm.

They are ideal for a quick lift, but are not suitable for extended support due to the trauma they may cause to the hip bones and muscles.

They are most useful if the cow can stand when lifted, such as simple milk fever cases.

When should a cow lifter be used? It should be used for a ‘down’ cow ithat is recumbent (lying down on her chest or side) and unable to stand on her own feet without assistance.Cows may become recumbent for many reasons, and at any stage of their lactation cycle,

although it most commonly occurs around calving time.

Lifting should only be done if it is effective and supervised. Cows that are unable to stand ‘effectively’ or

are unwilling to try to stand ‘effectively’ are best nursed without lifting, providing the bedding is suitable and they are rolled regularly, if needed.

Attention! Cow ‘lifters’ are not cow ‘hangers’!

Effective lifting means that the cow is able to stand in a natural position and take some of her own weight. If the cow is hanging from a hip clamp or slouching in a sling, without taking any weight on their legs, it can cause her more damage.
