A barrier component 36 for an animal stall (fig 2), comprising a curved, elongated body member 38 of elastomeric material such as vulcanised rubber. This body member has first and second end sections 44 each adapted for engagement within a respective hollow pipe (28, 30 fig 2). Together the two hollow pipes and the barrier component provide a stall divider when mounted on a suitable set of brackets, poles or supports at the head end of a stall. The component has a collar formation 46 at each end which defines an annular recess for receiving a hollow pipe end and shielding the end of the pipe from the animal.
