Bringing up baby *pics

This is my first year using my new feeding system and I couldn't be happier. My kids are 15 weeks and 70lbs

Cool system & great looking kids! Does anyone ever try to get someone else's nipple after they've finished their milk?

Thanks!!

The system is designed for constant feed which means there in an endless supply of fresh milk at all times. When the milk level gets low I switch it out for a fresh container. These 3 kids, at peak, were consuming 4 gallons a day!! A lot more than I ever put into them with a bucket feeder.
