The Agri Health Copper Bull Ring is a round copper metal ring used for controlling and handling bulls. It is built from two hinged semi-circles joined with a small bolt, and is intended for farmers, stockpeople and smallholders who need a reliable way to lead and control mature or maturing bulls.
A bull ring is usually placed on a bull between 9 and 12 months of age. The ring itself is easy to apply, but fitting is normally carried out by a vet or an experienced, competent stockperson. You can find more livestock and yard equipment in our yard and stable collection.
