Fitting cow collars for virtual fencing can be one of the more awkward and potentially risky jobs in the cattle yards. That’s why we’ve developed CollarBoss – a purpose-built solution designed to make fitting and adjusting virtual fencing collars for cows safer, easier, and more efficient.
What is CollarBoss?
CollarBoss is a specially designed headbail system with integrated neck extenders that give you safe, controlled access when working with cow collars.
Built to work with the proven Te Pari Headbail – which comes standard on our manual and pneumatic cattle crushes – CollarBoss adds hydraulically operated neck extenders to the front of the headbail. These extenders gently and securely position the cow’s neck, giving you clear access to fit or adjust virtual collars without putting yourself in harm’s way.
Designed for Halter and Gallagher eShepherd Virtual Fencing Collars
As more farmers adopt virtual fencing for cows, the need for safe collar fitting systems has never been greater. Whether you’re:
- Installing new virtual fencing collars
- Adjusting collar fit as cows grow or condition changes
- Replacing batteries or servicing devices
CollarBoss makes the process straightforward and controlled.
No Power Required
The neck extenders are operated by a manual hydraulic hand pump, meaning:
- No power supply needed
- No electrics to worry about
- Simple, reliable operation anywhere in your yards
This makes CollarBoss ideal for both permanent cattle yards and more remote setups.
