Flexible freestall divider Dreamstall

Dreamstall stall divider offers the cow all the freedom she needs. The Dreamstall is the first freestall system in which cows can adopt any natural standing and lying position. The unique features are the absence of neckrail and vertical dividers. No neckrail and conventional dividers anymore. After years of research, Cowhouse has succeeded in creating a resting place for a cow which can accommodate all her natural body positions. The new freestall system called “Dreamstall” offers her all the freedom she needs when standing or lying down. The neckrail has been replaced by two spherical bodies with a gap in between allowing the cow to stand with her head up. This is important as she has a limited field of vision and needs to look around to see if there is any danger from predators. The conventional dividers have been replaced by horizontal guiding frames for positioning the cow straight in the stall. In this way, the stallbase can be made significantly wider without compromising stall-cleanliness. Cows will be able to rest in every natural body-position without restrictions from pipes or neighbouring cows. Spherical bodies allow a cow standing in the stall with her head-up. The neckrail has been removed and replaced by two spherical bodies with a 40 cm wide gap in between. When entering the stall, the cow stops in the right position as soon as she touches the two bodies on her shoulders. She can stand now with all her legs in the stall. She can move her head freely up and down without any limitations. The spherical bodies are animal-friendly and offer extra comfort. Guiding-frames allow cows lying in every natural body position. The vertical dividers have been removed and replaced by horizontal guiding-frames. There is a gap of 90 cm between the frames. When a cow enters the stall, she will be positioned straight between the two guiding-frames. Once lying, she does not touch any dividers and she has plenty of space around her. The guiding-frame can move slightly upwards in case a cow hits it. The Dreamstall can be made as wide as you would like. Stall cleanliness will not be an issue anymore. We recommend a stall width of 140 - 160 cm. - Unlimited space for legs and udder - Stall width from 140 to 160 cm - Cows feel safer without a neckrail - Guide frames ensure that the cow lies straight in the stall Awards: Cowhouse's new Dreamstall stall divider was awarded with the gold Animal Welfare Award for contributing to better animal welfare and a silver Innovation Award at the Eurotier in 2022.
