Cattle Crowding Tubs
Arrowquip Ranch Equipment
A cattle crowding tub is designed to move livestock safely from a holding area into an alley or chute, keeping cattle calm and handlers in control. Traditional tubs use a sweep gate to guide cattle forward, often requiring two people to operate. Arrowquip’s BudFlow® Cattle Tub is engineered for low-stress handling with a one-person operation design, letting cattle flow naturally back to where they entered, reducing stress and often eliminating the need to use the sweep gate at all.
