LAMB/KID FEEDER BOTTLE 1LT ROUND HEAVY DUTY EXCAL SHOOF 207494

Fill the 1L bottle with warm milk or colostrum (37-39°C) and attach the appropriate teat securely. Present the bottle to the lamb or kid at a slight angle, allowing them to suckle naturally without forcing. After each feed, immediately rinse the bottle and teat with clean water, then sterilise with hot water or a sterilising solution before the next feed to prevent disease transmission. Tips: Colostrum is critical in the first 6-12 hours of life — aim to feed 10% of birth bodyweight within this window (e.g. 1L for a 10kg lamb). Always check milk temperature with your finger or a thermometer before feeding; milk that's too cool reduces intake and digestion, while milk that's too hot can damage the teat. Ensure the teat flow rate requires gentle suction from the animal to stimulate natural feeding behaviour and prevent bloat.
