Agri Health Spring Type Bullholder for Cattle
Description
Agri Health Spring Type Bullholder - Spring Loaded Cattle Nose Holder
The Agri Health Spring Type Bullholder is a spring-loaded steel nose holder used to lead and restrain bulls and cattle during everyday stock work. It is made for farmers, stockpeople, smallholders and veterinary staff who need a dependable way to hold an animal steady for inspection, foot care, weighing or treatment.
The bright steel finish wipes clean easily, and the spring action keeps the ball ends closed on the nasal septum so the holder stays put while the animal is led on a rope, chain or bull pole.

FAQ
What is a spring type bullholder used for?
It is a nose holder that grips the nasal septum so a bull or cow can be led or held steady for inspection, foot trimming, weighing or veterinary treatment.
How does the spring loading work?
The spring holds the two ball ends closed together once fitted, so the holder stays in position without being held shut by hand.
What finish is it?
Bright steel, which gives a smooth surface that is easy to wipe clean and inspect for wear.
Can it be used on young cattle as well as bulls?
It is intended for cattle handling generally, but the animal must be large and mature enough for the holder to sit correctly on the nasal septum. If in doubt, ask your vet or stock adviser.
How should I look after it?
Rinse off dirt, dry thoroughly and apply a light oil to protect the steel. Check the spring and ball ends before each use and stop using it if it is bent or the spring has weakened.
Does it come with a lead rope?
No, the bullholder is supplied on its own. Use it with your own lead rope, chain or bull pole.
