More about CalfOTel®

Calf housing

During the rearing period, calves develop their immune systems. High-quality calf pens on your farm will make a real difference. But what are high-quality calf pens? Do you prefer your animals indoor or outdoor housing? Do you prefer individual hutches or duo housing? We will be happy to explain the advantages of the various systems we have in our range.

Hygiene

Like us, a calf is continuously surrounded by microorganisms. Only a few microorganisms are truly 'pathogenic' and are capable of causing diseases. In order to keep these pathogens away from the newborn calf (which is yet to develop any immunity), we aim to ensure the highest possible standards of hygiene.

Fly control

Prevent Nuisance and Protect Your Calves

In July, flies are everywhere. For young calves, flies are not just annoying—they pose a real risk. They can spread disease, cause stress, and hinder growth. In warmer months, flies reproduce rapidly—one fly can produce up to 500 new flies in a single month.

Tips about teats

The teat you choose affects how the calf drinks. This influences:

How much milk the calf takes in
How much saliva the calf produces
How calmly the calf drinks
Hygiene around milk feeding

Experiences

‘Healthier calves in outdoor housing’.

‘‘My consultant for compound feed told me about CalfOTel® calf igloos. In addition to the single-calf hutches I purchased from them, I bought three CalfOTel® XL 5 group hutches a few months ago This allows the calves to remain outside in the fresh air for longer before being transferred to the former youngstock housing. This time outdoors keeps them healthy. As my calves suffered a lot less from diarrhoea, I ordered two more group igloos.’

‘If I need to expand my housing, I’ll buy CalfOTel products.’

‘I’ve been using CalfOTel® calf igloos for ten years now. As I expand my business, I’ve bought CalfOTel® calf hutches again and again. It’s the obvious choice: they’re easy to use and easy to clean. In addition to focusing on calf feed, I notice that it’s worth paying extra attention to their housing. After all, my calves are my future dairy cows and an important foundation for my business.’
