Abstract: A free-standing animal fluid applicator comprises a frame constructed from pipe and having two spaced apart upright members. Two mechanism support hanging arms are pivotally attached to upper end portions of the upright members. The height of the hanging arms are adjustable to accommodate different sizes of animals. A reservoir extends between the hanging arms. The bottom of the reservoir has two downwardly directed valves. Below the valves is an open trough having a cotton material hanging therefrom. When an animal passes through the cotton material, it pulls a chain which id guided to pull down on an exterior end portion of rocker arm. The interior end portion of the rocker arm lifts one end of a valve closure member. The other end of the valve closure member moves downwardly opening the valve. The valve closure member includes an adjustable counterweight. Adjustment of the counterweight regulates fluid flow through the valve. Fluid in the reservoir then runs down through the valve and into the trough.
