Pictured here is the "Junior" DeerhandlerTM Chute. The "Junior" is the most economical chute to purchase if AI'ing is not a priority (although today many farmers AI over the side of the Junior DeerhandlerTM). With all its features, there are virtually no limitations to the tasks a deer farmer can perform on fawns, does and bucks. Its unique design safely allows the operator to stand right next to the biggest buck, even with antlers. The "Junior" is perfect for the following tasks: Tagging, Tattooing, TB Testing, Cutting or Scoring of Antlers, Hoof Trimming, Ultra-sounding Does, Semen Collecting, DNA Sampling, and Administering Medications.
FEATURES
- Opens fully for accessing approximately 80% of the deer's body
- Narrow bottom half allows the operator to stand right next to the deer
- Large round top to accommodate large antlered bucks
- Three spring loaded (overhead) bi-fold doors provide unobstructed openings on both sides
- A bottom door on each side for accessing legs and collecting semen
- Side trip-floor lever and foot-floor raising pedal on operating side
- New improved manual headgate makes headman's job much easier
- Both sides of cradle swing open evenly for gentle release of the deer
- Shoulder stops keep deer from escaping when headgate opens
- Creep proof chute entrance
- Ceiling mounted backpress securely holds deer down in cradle
- Full width rubber covered drop-floor
- Available in right or left hand models.
- How do you know if you need a right hand or a left hand model? The orientation is determined by imagining following the deer into the chute. If the controls are on the left, it's a left hand, and if they're on the right, it's a right hand.
