This is a SNACK BAR with a McInnes Float Valve fitted. This is
an ideal waterer for smaller groups of calves, as the lesser volume
means the water changes more often and keeps fresher.
15 litre capacity, valve level set at 8- 10 litres. You can use
one Snack Water Trough between two pens. Studies in the U.S.A have
shown that calves which had access to fresh water from birth consumed
3.2kg more pellets and were 2kg heavier at 30 days than calves that
had no access to water.
NEVER feed calves water from a teat. Water needs to be directed
to the rumen which can only happen with the drinking action from
a trough whereas when calves are drinking water from a teat the
water is directed to the abomasum.
Dimensions: 650mm long X 200mm wide X 130mm deep.
