The sturdy carry handle makes it easy to carry the feeder full of milk to your lambs and kids. The moulded plastic hooks are stepped to sit on either 25mm or 40mm rails. There is a self latching catch that drops under a pipe rail to prevent it being bunted off. Gradients are marked at 5L and the teats sit low in the milk channel. How to use You can hang the Milk Bar™ Lamb/ Kid 7 on rails or pipes from 25mm to 40mm 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 lambs and kids the best drinking position, hang the feeder on a rail around 65 cm high. This puts the teat at 60cm which is the optimum height for them and helps the oesophageal groove to close and milk to bypass the rumen. 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!
