Milk Bar™ Automatic Teat for Lamb/Kid (10 Pack)

When using in an Automatic Feeder:

Start by training very young animals with the softer, yellow training teat.

when lambs and kids are drinking strongly you can transition them into the automatic group.

Replace the Milk Bar™ Automatic Lamb and Kid Teat at least once a week and transfer the new lambs and kids to the automatic group on the same day. This protects them from the effects of fast feeding.

When using a Milk Bar Teat Seperator:

Start by training with the softer, yellow training teat before transitioning lambs and kids to the bigger group.

In this system, the teats are not under pressure and so you can replace the teats after a longer period of time. We recommend every 6 - 8 weeks.

Milk is a difficult substance to clean off of surfaces. You need hot water to remove the fat, but the heat can bake the protein onto the surface. Using warm water to get rid of the protein leaves a film of fat. When fats and proteins stick to the surface of equipment, they form a biofilm, a nutrient-rich layer in which bacteria grow.
The biofilm protects bacteria from the cleaning process and results in equipment that appears clean but has bacteria on the surface. The cleaning process not only needs to remove fat and protein from surfaces but prevent the formation of a biofilm.

Made from renewable, high quality natural rubber, Milk Bar™ Teats are kinder to the environment. Natural rubber absorbs the milk fat and protein which can cause the teats to become softer and start to drip. The milk flow can become faster, decreasing calf performance.
Recommended cleaning: Use Milk Bar™ Detergent, a dishwashing detergent, or any other non-chlorine/ chloride dairy detergent twice a week. Important! Chlorine/chloride based dairy detergents degrade natural rubber which reduces teat performance and voids any warranty.
Rinse your teats with water.
Use a gentle detergent, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use Chlorine/chloride based dairy detergents!
Using a brush, lightly scrub the outside of the teats making sure to bend the teats. By bending the teats, any milk gets pushed back inside the feeder so the detergent can make contact with the inside of the teat wall.
Rinse clean.
