Roy-L-Heat Thermostat Controlled Preferred Vet Supply Calf Warmer | RH5000
Every calf or lamb dropped in the bitter cold of winter stands a chance of losing valuable body heat. To prevent the loss of those newborns' lives, and the income they represent, get one of the Roy-L-Heat RH5000 calf warmers.
Hot air circulates around the calf to raise body temperature and to dry out the calf. The head boot allows the calf to breathe fresh air, preventing pneumonia causing moisture from entering the calf's lungs as it is warmed up.
The calf warmer box is made of tough, high-density polyethylene. Its interior size provides adequate space for calves to lie down and to stand up. The "attic vent" allows excess moisture to escape. A 110-volt heater circulates body temperature air around the animal. The heater is protected in a separate enclosure attached to the rear of the box and easily removes to make rinsing and disinfecting simple.
This is the preferred animal warmer by vet suppliers and ranchers. Backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
