JFC Peach Teats for JFC Calf Milk Feeders.
Peach Teats simulate natural feeding because milk is squirted into the calf's mouth, just like real milk. It also allows the same amount of fluid to pass through it as a cow's udder naturally would. This product is ideal for sick calves that have difficulty sucking milk through conventional teats. The transverse slits on the end of the teat are positioned to minimise milk loss when the teat is not in use. Drinking from a teat helps the calf satisfy their urge to suckle.
Saliva has two functions:
A. Buffering. Saliva, with a pH value of approximately 8.2 and a high sodium bicarbonate level, has a buffering effect in the rumen. This means that the saliva helps to counteract the effects of acid-producing feedstuffs, such as cereals, molasses, potatoes and fodder beets, on the ruminal PH.
B. Suppressing foam. Saliva can also reduce the risk of bloat as it also has a foam suppressing effect in the rumen – Bloat can be fatal.
Key Features:
- Ideal for calves.
- The teat encourages the calf to suck thereby increasing saliva flow and enhanced milk digestibility.
- Pull through teat.
