Cow Brushes


Anyone have any automatic cow brushes? Which ones do you prefer?

Re:


I have the DeLaval. I'm happy with it and so are the cattle. I've never had a competing brand so my experience is limited to the one.

They are great for keeping the cattle groomed and promoting rubbing there vs elsewhere in the barn.

I do like the swinging design but others don't like how it moves around the cow.

Re: Cow Brushes


I have a Lely brush. Put it in about two years ago and the cows love it! No problems with it at all so far. I do think that the de Laval will clean their sides better, but the Lely was less than half the price And still does a great job

I think they run around £1800, probably one of the more expensive options but from what I've seen they are my favourite - definitely on my wish list!!

Thanks Will. (By the way, when I said for myself, I meant for grooming myself, haha!).
