LOOK WHAT’S COMING!
Pain, apprehension, injuries, and damage are all
descriptors that are commonly used when Emu/Rhea
breeders talk about vet care, moving birds from pen to
pen, or just normal health care such as worming or sexing.
A breeder designed a crate that allows one person to
safely work on and/or transport Emus or Rheas. The E/R
crate it constructed of cattle panel material with a steel
floor that it powder coated. The non-slip floor makes the
crate very safe for the birds and it easy to clean and disin
fect for the owner.
There are grates in the front and back for easy entry and
quick release. A two-position handle on the front of the
cart can be easily instidled to move cart like a wheelbar
row. The handle also helps to balance the crate if being
moved manually. There it also a hitch connected to the
bottom of the frame for small tractors.
The E/R cart can also be used for moving calves.
The dimension of the E/R crate; 3'A feet tall by 4 feet
long by 2 feet wide. Orders will be shipped UPS with
directions for assembly. A limited supply of the E/R crate
will be available soon.
