Stable Boards: Order at the Pen
Anyone who notes information down where it is actually needed saves themselves a lot of questions later. That is exactly what the stable board is for: it hangs on the pen, carries the name, treatment, feeding or calving date and wipes clean in a second. Alongside it you will find the matching holders for tubes and bars, chalk in dry and liquid form and a few practical helpers that belong in every barn. Together it all costs very little and makes a noticeable difference to the daily routine.
Boards and Holders
The boards come in 20 x 30, 30 x 20, 40 x 22 and 40 x 30 centimetres, made from lacquered plastic and therefore unbothered by damp. Besides the plain version there are pre printed variants for cattle, pigs and the feeding plan, plus a combined writing and magnetic board. The board holders fit tubes of 1, 1 1/4 and 1 1/2 inches as well as bars, so you can mount them without drilling and move them again whenever the pens are rearranged.
Small Helpers for the Barn Day
Two more items here simply make the working day nicer. The EasyOut boot jack tray takes your wellingtons and keeps the muck where it belongs instead of in the anteroom. And a digital weather station with an outdoor sensor shows temperature and humidity in the barn; the WiFi version reports the readings to your phone, which helps in summer heat and winter frost alike. Both devices can be set up or hung without any tools.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I write on the stable boards with?
With dry chalk or with a liquid chalk marker. The marker holds better in damp conditions, while dry chalk wipes off again more quickly and costs next to nothing to replace.
Does every holder fit every tube?
No, the holders are matched to tube diameters. Measure first to see whether you need 1, 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inches, or choose the version made for bars.
Do the boards cope with damp barn air?
Yes. The lacquered plastic takes up no moisture and can be wiped down wet without the surface suffering for it.
Small Parts That Keep the Farm Organised
A lot of time goes on questions in the barn when information is not written down where the work happens. A wipeable stable board on the pen solves that with the simplest of means: name, treatment, feeding or calving date are visible straight away and gone again with one wipe. You will find boards here in four sizes made from lacquered plastic, plain or pre printed for cattle, pigs and the feeding plan, plus a combined writing and magnetic board. Matching holders are made for tubes of one, one and a quarter and one and a half inches as well as for bars, so you mount them without drilling. Rounding off the range are dry chalk and liquid chalk markers, a pull out tray for wellingtons and digital weather stations that keep temperature and humidity in view.
