Tubular
speculums make doing AI and OB work on small ruminants much easier. There
are a couple different options available, from the basic rigid tube to the
popular model with built-in light source. The basic standard plastic
speculum is a clear plastic cylindrical tube available in small or large
size. The smaller of the two versions is 8 inches in length with a 1 inch
outside diameter. The larger version is also 8 inches in length, but with
a 1.25" outside diameter. The popular versions of these speculums
have a convenient removable light source that fits within an inner tube affixed
to the inner wall of the speculum. The light itself is at the end of a
bendable lead wire attached to the portable power source. This unit pours
light right where it's needed without the user having to hold a light in
his/her mouth and try and aim. Powered by (2) AA batteries, the unit is
simple to operate and maintain. Pull the light out of the speculum, clean
the outer tube, and you're ready to reuse it over and over again. The
unique characteristics of the clear plastic speculum tube also tend to refract
the light down and through the walls. It fits easily into a pocket, kit
box or apron. The components are also available individually, so you can use
one light source for multiple speculum tubes. The portable flexible light
source can come in handy for multiple applications.
