Easy to Treat Calves
“We’re really liking our new hutch pens. The gates make for easy in and out to check on or treat calves. The head holes with the hook on buckets (on the outside of the pen) make watering and cleaning buckets easy.”

In the world of dairy farming, the future is built on the strength of our calves. At Calf-Tel, we think bigger and have designed the Mammoth with the producer and herd’s success in mind. It is designed specifically to meet the demands of producers looking to raise calves in smaller groups or to meet transitional housing needs for post-weaned calves prior to moving to larger herds.

Material & Manufacturing
Calf-Tel College – Manufacturing Process
Heavy gauge thermoforming is the process our plastic is put through. Making Calf-Tel hutches lightweight but durable and built to last – 10 Year Limited Warranty.
The biggest advantage of a Calf-Tel calf hutch lies in our manufacturing process. We use a thermoforming process with High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE). This creates a much stronger molecular bond than fiberglass or standard molded plastics. As a result, Calf-Tel hutches are incredibly durable, lightweight, and completely non-porous. Unlike fiberglass or wood, which can develop micro-cracks where harmful bacteria hide, our HDPE is completely impermeable to pathogens and fertilizer acids, making biosecurity and cleaning simple.
The Calf-Tel Mammoth is designed specifically to continue a calf's successful transition from individual to group rearing. It is the largest calf housing unit we produce, offering 9 square meters of usable space in the hutch alone.
Absolutely. Calf-Tel housing solutions are designed with the calf's welfare and the dairy farmer's compliance in mind. Our modular Indoor Pen Systems (like the Combo) are available in customizable lengths, allowing you to easily meet regional square-meter requirements.
Because of the thermoformed high molecular weight polyethylene, our hutches do not crack or degrade under extreme farm conditions. While we offer a 10-year warranty, it is common to see Calf-Tel hutches easily lasting 25 years or more on dairy farms across Europe.
The Mammoth easily accommodates groups of post-weaned calves. When paired with our modular Group Yard systems, the 8|16 yard comfortably houses 4 to 7 calves, while the larger 12|16 yard holds up to 8 calves. This makes it an ideal solution for European dairy farmers looking to optimize social development and solid feed intake.
Our modular indoor pen system is designed for ultimate flexibility and hygiene. The solid side and rear panels prevent nose-to-nose contact to reduce disease transmission between individual pens, while still allowing visual and auditory social contact. When you are ready to transition to paired or group housing, the panels are easily removable, allowing you to combine calves without moving them to a new environment. This drastically reduces weaning stress.
No. Our extruded polyethylene is completely opaque and impenetrable to UV light. This blocks the sun's radiation, preventing the "greenhouse effect" common in translucent fiberglass hutches. Combined with built-in ridge vents and adjustable rear and/or side openings, Calf-Tel hutches keep calves cooler in the summer and dry during harsh winters.
Yes. Respiratory health is critical in group calf rearing. The Mammoth features streamlined ventilation ports, additional ventilation on the rear bottom doors, and an open front to ensure continuous airflow without creating cold drafts at the calf level.
Yes. The impact-resistant plastic panels are non-porous and incredibly easy to pressure wash. The modular interlocking design means pens can be quickly broken down, sanitized, and reassembled, saving significant labor time between calf cycles.
