You can stop worrying about your calves' health when the weatherchanges with Calf-tel™ Comfort Hutches. No other hutch provides a draft-free environment without big swings in temperature as well as Calf-tel™, The hutch's thermomolded, opaque material eliminates the "greenhouse effect," which can cause intolerable heat on hot days, and moisture problems during cold weather. Ridge top vents at front and back allow fresh air to move through the hutch to remove excess moisture in winter. Warm climate models have a fully open front, and a rear vent door, to keep calves comfortable. Calves stay cleaner and dryer thanks to the hutch's 86" length and bigger sleeping area. Plus, the inside feed station prevents spoilage.
