Anti-sucker guards<br />

Calves and cows housed in groups or individual pens often exhibit an abnormal behaviour called crosssucking.<br />

Cross-sucking is defined as one calf sucking the ear, mouth, scrotum, prepuce, tail, udder area<br />

or navel of another calf. This type of behaviour can have a negative impact on calf health. The antisucker<br />

guards fit into the nasal cartilage of the calf/cow. When the animal tries to suck another animal,<br />

the protruding spikes will come into contact with the skin tissue causing discomfort and therefore the<br />

animal being sucked will move away. Anti-sucker guards do not affect the feed uptake of the animal.<br />
