Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the benefits — in terms of calf health — of using this Poly Deluxe SL Hutch vs. less-designed housing?
-
Because of its ventilation, cleanable surfaces, weather protection and individual calf housing, this hutch can reduce exposure to moisture, drafts, and pathogens, thereby lowering illness risk. Good housing like this supports calf comfort, hygiene, and overall early-life health.
- How easy is the Poly Deluxe SL Hutch to clean and maintain?
-
Very easy — the hutch is molded from non-absorbent plastic, so it won’t harbor bacteria like porous wood might, and surfaces wipe down or spray clean smoothly. The larger rear opening also makes it easier to add bedding, manure, or clean thoroughly.
- How does the Poly Deluxe SL Hutch support proper ventilation and air quality?
-
The Hutch features a top roof vent, bottom/rear airflow vents, and a rear-door design that significantly increases airflow (versus older designs). This helps ensure fresh air circulation, which is critical for reducing dampness, pathogens and respiratory issues.
- How does the Poly Deluxe SL Hutch compare (for labor and maintenance) to traditional wood hutches or indoor pens?
-
Compared with wood huts, the plastic Poly Deluxe SL Hutch is easier to clean (non-porous), less prone to rot or pests, and lighter to move. Compared with indoor pens, it offers fresh-air ventilation and lower risk of disease spread — but may require more frequent inspection and maintenance of bedding and drainage.
- For what age or size of calves is the Poly Deluxe SL Hutch intended?
-
The SL-size Deluxe Hutch is ideal for calves up to ~10 weeks of age.
- Does the Poly Deluxe SL Hutch come with feeding/watering accessories?
-
Yes. The Deluxe SL Hutch comes standard with two pails and a pail-manger system. The splash-guard on the manger helps keep feed dry and water clean.
