Wydale - Calf Feeder

Additional Information: Dimensions: Length 1.27m, Width 0.51m, Depth 0.34m, Weight 9.5kg

Description: One man using two 5 Teatfeeders can feed over 70 calves and hour. Using this system a typical calf can be weaned on as little as 15kg of milk powder as opposed to 50kg on the Ad lib method. The cowling guides the calf to the teat and protects it from its neighbour ensuring slow drinkers get enough milk. In addition, calves' herded in groups encourages ealrier intake of solid food, whilst exercise helps digestion and gives freedom to find a draught free positino. Calves are generally happier. The Wydale system is not only fast and efficient it also remains the best for animal welfare. The troughs have compartments each holding 2 litres to the ridge along the back or 3 litres to the top of the weirs. You only need to fill up as many compartments as you have calves per pen. One sick calf can be given medicated milk/electrolytes if necessary and the rest plain milk. Colostrum can be fed to new born calves before they can stand; simply put the feeder on the floor and push to the calf's mouth. It is ideal for introducing the first feed to bought in calves from the market - without a struggle!
