Wrangers in Australia
Whether you are planning a new shed or improving an existing one, a Wrangler is essential equipment for every farm. The double belly straps hold the cow, immobilising and relaxing her, and preventing her from ‘going down’ and breaking a hip during treatment. The back hoof is then winched to a supporting bar leaving the operator with both hands free and out of the way of the knife. The front hoof is held securely on the front foot wooden block.
​
The Wranglers all come as a Race Wrangler to be fixed in place, or a portable Premier Wrangler.

No new shed is complete without Race Wrangler. Order in good time to ensure it can be installed at the same time as the yarding and concrete goes in. The concrete can be poured through the floor frame to give seamless integration and easy hosing out. Many shed builders put these into every shed they build and you should too.
Installation into an existing shed is also a breeze. The Race Wrangler has predrilled holes for dyna bolting into existing concrete. It is generously wide at 850mm and 1860mm long (floor frame). Simply place at the end of your vet race, in a pen at the yard, or cut away existing pipe work and drop the Race Wrangler into place. We are pretty clever at finding just the right spot in your setup for a Wrangler so, if you are at all not sure, just give us a call and discuss it.
Premier Wrangler
Doing hooves at the shed, calving in the paddock or treating stock at the run-off, the Premier Wrangler is prefect for getting the job done.
Hooves are a breeze in the Wrangler. The cow can't kick or go down, allowing you total access to treat front and back hooves. During calving the Premier Wrangler can be left in the springer paddock, giving you calving facilities without walking the cow to the shed. When finished, drop the wheels into place and tow to the shed or runoff.
