FREE CHOICE FEEDING
Use of a free choice device requires that the milk replacer solution be kept cool (< 60° F.) to
prevent overconsumption. Kids may need to be trained to suckle from nipples; however,
they will readily adapt in a day or two. Always offer fresh milk replacer.
Feeding equipment should be cleaned each day. Always offer free choice water.
