Fitted with Milk Bar™ Lamb/ Kid Training Teats which are specifically formulated to help train and support young or weak animals.
The hooks fit a 25mm rail and the feeder has a self-locking catch to secure it to a rail.
Finger grips make this feeder easy to carry and the feeder is semi transparent to check volume.
How to use
You can hang the Milk Bar™ Lamb/ Kid 3 - Training on rails or pipes up to 25mm wide. Make sure you don’t force the feeder onto a wider rail as it can result in cracking the base of the hook.
To give your animals the best drinking position, hang the Milk Bar™ Lamb/ Kid 3 on a rail all-round 55cm high. This puts the teat at 30cm which is generally a good height for lambs and kids.
After a few feeds, transition them onto a feeder fitted with firmer Milk Bar™ Lamb/ Kid Teats to reduce gorging and bloat.
How do I change my teats?
Milk Bar™ Teats have a pull through design to sit snugly against the feeder wall for optimum hygiene. However, while this is the most hygienic system, it can also be difficult to change teats!
Use a Teat Tool: This is by far the easiest method. The purpose designed Teat Tool plucks the teat from the feeder with minimal effort in seconds.
Pull the teats out by hand: When removing by hand, make sure to either pull the teat directly down or up. If you try to pull the teat straight out, it will be a tough job!
Cut the teats out: Make sure the blade is sharp and you use the knife away from you.
Make sure to check the teat alignment is correct and the slit is vertical!
