Incredibly robust and durable, the Milk Bar™ 1 will last many years of hard work. The hooks fit a 25mm rail and the feeder has a self-locking catch to secure it to a rail. A nicely positioned teat channel is comfortable for the calf and ensures the feeder completely drains. Finger grips make this feeder easy to carry and it comes with a lid to stop flies. Fitted with a Milk Bar™ Teat to improve calf digestion. How To Use You can hang the Milk Bar™ 1 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 calves the best drinking position, hang the Milk Bar™ 1 on a rail around 80cm high. This puts the teat at 60cm which is the optimum height for calves and helps the oesophageal groove to close. 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. Be sure to check the teat alignment is correct and the slit is vertical!
