Cows Love Powered Cattle Brushes
 |
The Lely Luna is a 30-in. dia. brush that's powered by a small electric motor that's activated as soon as the cow bumps the brush. It can be mounted on a wall or pole.
A timer keeps the brush rotating for about 30 seconds at a time, then it automatically shuts off. If the cow's tail ever gets caught in the brush, the unit will automatically stop, preventing injury. The brush mounts on a metal frame that pivots up or down according to the cow's size. The brushes are made in sections and are secured by a single bolt. Worn sections can be replaced by simply removing the bolt.
Sells for $1,700 (Canadian).
