Portable Tub & Alley Features
Most Compact Towing Package Ever
The Portable Tub and Cattle Alley is designed with compact towing in mind, allowing you to transport the unit safely. Measuring just under 28’ long, this system is easier than ever to tow.
3E System
The 3E System drastically improves cattle entry into the tub and prevents hold-ups as they enter the alley. With the BudFlow Tub upgrade, you also add functionality to your system by allowing cattle to work with their natural instincts and increase tub capacity.
Easy Flow Cattle Alleys
The Easy Flow Adjustable Cattle Alley is designed for safe, efficient handling in portable systems. With an adjustable width from 31.5” down to 21.3”, animals can’t turn around, while spring latches and ropes let you adjust both sides without walking around the unit. Built-in blinder panels control what cattle see, and an emergency exit provides peace of mind if an animal goes down. For added efficiency, the alley can also be used for weighing with a platform.
Designed to Move
The Portable Cattle Tub and Alley comes with a durable hitch that features an added gusset for support and a bracket that can be adjusted into three different positions to work with different vehicles. The wheels are easily installed with two pins, and the unit comes with a 2-5/16” ball hitch or pin hitch so you can choose the right option for your towing setup.
