    Very helpful video. Thank you. And do you always feed cold milk? Or do you start them on warm bottles then transition them to this cold lamb-bar?

    Yes, they get warm milk the first 36 hours or so until they are on the lumbar around day two. I usually just switch them cold turkey with cold milk.

    How often are you cleaning this bucket? Also, I know it’s easy for kids to over eat and get scours, how do you monitor this issue with group feedings?

    I only have calves but from what I understand nipple design is key to avoiding nutritional scours, they need to salivate and work for it. Sucking and stripping the nipple properly not holding it open or pumping it to cheat. I had a friend that cut and enlarged the X on the tip and I told him Nooooooooooo bad decision. Just feed and be patient I said lol Getting enough saliva and for it to enter slow enough for it to start clot forming and not leaking into the small intestine is why design is imprtant...or not altering them too much. I'm not sure what feeding rate should be for kids but for calves I try to keep it way less than half a liter a minute. Peach teats are a good design as are the ones on milk bars. I've used cheaper one before but check them in store for orifice size...smaller or not even cut open right is best then I can customize it lol. Manufacturing defects are sometimes good I guess in that sense haha

    Can you get the nipples and tubing on Amazon? If so, do you have a link for them?

    If you scroll through the options on the lambar set up, you can see where you can purchase the individual components
