Doesn't Lambar make a multi-calf feeding bucket?

[TSYORK]

I'm searching all over for a milk feeder that will feed 3-4 calves at one time. I thought Jeffers had them, but I'm not finding them on their website, but I may just not be looking in the appropriate spot! I've got three or four coming in a few weeks and don't want to fool with four bottles, twice a day. Can any offer advice on where I can find this apparatus? It doesn't have to come from Jeffers, I just need one. Any suggestions appreciated.

TIA,

Try valley vet http://www.valleyvet.com item 22430

I just looked these up last week and found a few more but will have to re-research.

Maybe Myersfarm can help. I have seen them in the pics posted.

Agmantoo beat me to it and I like the straight one better-but have not used one yet.

how do you keep the calves from over eating and getting scours with these? Do they start to self regulate?

TS, I use the Stallion feeders with Peach teats that are in Agman's link. I have two single feeders and one 3 feeder. Easy to use and keep clean. Just be aware that the bolts that hold the fence hangers on have a habit of working loose and dropping out into the grass never to be seen again so I now keep a shifting spanner handy so I can give a weekly tighten up.

Lasergrl, they are segmented so that each calf gets it's correct amount of milk. However, one still has to watch out for stronger, greedier calves knocking others off their teats which is why I keep a couple of single feeders. Little calves or slower feeders get fed on their own calfateria to ensure they get their full complement of milk.

Cheers,
Ronnie
