If you were a cow, what would the ideal environment for living look like to you?


It’s thick
It’s dry
It’s soft
It’s yielding...
It’s better than anything else out there!
— Donald Russell, Founder

Highlights from our barn design include;

  • No non-yielding surfaces

  • Ability to express the Five Freedoms

  • Creates a positive environment for hoof health

  • Eliminates injuries related to stalls, end gates and cross alleys

  • Greatly reduces bossy cow behaviours

  • No more swollen hocks and abrasions

  • All natural behaviours can be expressed

  • System eliminates stress on the cow during Herd Health visits

  • Little stress from a result of moving cows between groups (ex. from the dry cow group to the delivery pen then to the fresh pen)

  • Resting area is the most comfortable environment possible due to the thick, dry, soft, yielding bedding


All these benefits assure you a great animal care assessment!

This barn design is great for heat detections. The cows can run and show natural behaviour without getting hurt! Just a great, natural environment for them.
