Call me weird, but I think the extra bacteria makes for stronger calves. I also commonly feed my calves soured and clabbered milk.
With the lambar buckets for my goat kids, I don't wash the bucket more than once every two weeks in cold weather and once a day in hot weather. Again, I think a little bacteria makes for stronger kids.
