Pig tail trimmers

Tail docking in pigs is a practice based on the prevention of health and welfare problems in livestock. Here are the main reasons behind the importance of tail docking for pigs:

1. Prevention of biting: one of the main objectives of tail docking is to prevent pigs from biting each other's tails. Under crowded or stressful conditions, pigs can become aggressive and bite each other, which can cause injuries, infections and welfare problems. Tail docking helps reduce these detrimental health behaviors in livestock.
2. Improved health: by preventing tail biting, the risk of infection and injury to pigs is reduced, which in turn contributes to the overall health of the herd.
3. Regulatory compliance: legislation and regulations related to animal welfare may require tail docking as a specific management practice to ensure the welfare of the pigs.

A wide range of gas tail trimmers, cautery blades, cautery gas refills, electric tail trimmers, straight or curved blades for electric tail trimmers, and more are available. In our catalog you will find detailed information about each of our products.

Calf teats

At Cardil we know that calf teats play an essential role in the growth and welfare of these animals. Having the right nipples is the key to successful calf rearing. A high quality teat influences several aspects, among them:

1. Nutrition and growth: teats allow calves to obtain breast milk or milk replacers from the mother or artificial sources. Milk is a crucial source of nutrients, vitamins and minerals necessary for the healthy growth of calves, providing a rich source of protein and energy.
2. Development of feeding skills: suckling through nipples is also crucial for the development of feeding skills in calves. It teaches them to suck and swallow properly, skills that will be essential when they move to a more solid diet.
3. Stress reduction: Access to nipples and proper feeding reduces stress in calves, which is essential for their development. A well fed and cared for calf is more resistant to disease and has greater growth potential.

Our calf teats ensure that calves receive the nutrients they need for optimal growth, which will also determine the quality of the final production on your farm.

Lambs cube

We offer you a wide variety of buckets for feeding lambs. Manufactured with materials of high resistance and durability, easy to clean, hygienic and available with different numbers of outlets depending on the needs of each farm.

Lamb nipple buckets offer an efficient way to supply feed, hence the importance of having the best quality ones for your farm. Learn more about their main advantages:

1. They facilitate feeding: nipple buckets are designed to simulate the suckling action. This allows lambs to feed in a natural way, sucking the nipple comfortably, which promotes an adequate intake of milk or milk replacers.
2. Feeding control: these buckets are equipped with a mechanism that regulates milk flow, allowing precise control of the amount of feed each lamb receives. This is essential to ensure proper nutrition and prevent milk wastage.
3. Promote independence: as lambs develop and become accustomed to nipple buckets, they can become more independent in terms of feeding. This facilitates the transition from a milk-based diet to one based on roughage or solid concentrates when the time is right.
4. Efficient handling: nipple buckets are practical for breeders, as they save time and effort in hand feeding lambs.
