Product Name Small-Group Calf Hutch for 2–3 Calves
Product Image small-group calf hutch for 2–3 calves
Product Overview The Small-Group Calf Hutch for 2–3 Calves is designed for pair housing and small-group calf rearing in dairy farms, calf nurseries and replacement-heifer facilities.

The system combines a weather-protected fiberglass-reinforced hutch with a galvanized outdoor exercise fence, giving calves access to both a sheltered resting area and an open-air activity zone.

The wider entrance allows more than one calf to enter or leave the shelter comfortably, while roof ventilation openings support natural air exchange. A smooth internal surface, tilting fence and movable hutch design simplify routine bedding removal, washing and sanitation.
Key Features
  • Designed for pair housing or small groups of two to three calves.
  • Fiberglass-reinforced polyester hutch provides a durable and weather-resistant shelter.
  • Smooth internal surface supports effective washing and hygiene management.
  • Roof-front ventilation openings promote natural airflow inside the hutch.
  • Galvanized steel fencing provides a robust outdoor exercise enclosure.
  • Large entrance provides comfortable access for multiple calves.
  • Adjustable feeding openings accommodate different calf sizes and growth stages.
  • Integrated threshold helps retain straw bedding inside the sheltered area.
  • Fence can be tilted to simplify cleaning of the outdoor pen area.
  • Hutch can be tilted forward for easier bedding removal and sanitation.
  • Integrated wheels and rear handling point improve movement around the calf-rearing area.
  • Feeding accessories can be configured according to farm management requirements.
Structural Components
  • Calf Shelter: One-piece fiberglass-reinforced polyester housing provides protection from wind, rain and direct solar exposure.
  • Ventilation Openings: Openings near the front roof section support passive air exchange.
  • Galvanized Fence: Outdoor enclosure creates a controlled exercise and feeding area in front of the hutch.
  • Front Feeding Fence: Adjustable feeding openings provide access for milk, water and supplementary feed management.
  • Threshold: Low entrance threshold helps retain bedding while maintaining convenient calf access.
  • Integrated Wheels: Wheels positioned near the threshold simplify repositioning of the hutch.
  • Rear Handle: Provides a convenient handling point when moving or tilting the shelter.
  • Bucket Rings: Feeding positions can support milk, water or feeding containers according to the selected configuration.
Structural Principle The housing system separates the calf environment into two functional zones. The enclosed rear hutch provides a dry, sheltered resting and bedding area, while the galvanized front enclosure provides outdoor space for feeding, movement and social interaction.

Natural ventilation openings near the roof allow warm and humid air to escape while fresh air enters through the large front opening. The fiberglass-reinforced shell provides weather protection while the smooth internal surface supports sanitation between calf groups.

For cleaning, the front enclosure can be tilted away from the operating area and the hutch can be raised or tilted to expose bedding and floor surfaces.
