Description

The use of rubber scratching products has been shown to improve cow welfare and behavior by reducing stress and promoting a more relaxed and contented herd

The dairy scratchy is a cost-effective alternative to brushes. These scratchy’s are ideal for cubicle end walls, especially to cover sharp corners which could cause harm if rubbed against. The scratchy helps to stimulate blood flow, which in turn can increase movement and increase milk production in the cow. These are ideal to reduce bullying, as when multiple are installed throughout the cow shed, cows won’t have to fight over who uses it.

Benefits

Explore the unique advantages our products provide.

The dairy scratchy helps to satisfy the cows natural need to scratch in order to shed parasites, scabs and mites, without risking injury or abrasion to their skin.
The dairy scratchy can help to stimulate blood flow. This is beneficial in a milking herd as blood flow is required for milk production.
This system is ideal for farms who practise tail painting as a method of heat detection as the rubber studs won’t rub off the paint like a rotary brush.
Multiple dairy scratchies in one building can be beneficial to the herd dynamics as it can prevent fighting, due to their being multiple stations to scratch at. This also ensures every cow is able to safely shed parasites, mites and scabs.
