Cattle are ruminants, meaning that they have a digestive system that allows them to utilize otherwise undigestible foods by repeatedly regurgitating and rechewing them as "cud." The cud is then reswallowed and further digested by specialized microorganisms that live in the rumen. The calf milk bucket we offer allows baby calves to get the nutrition that they need when not receiving it from the mother. The gestation period for a cow is nine months. A newborn calf weighs approximately 35-45kg. Cows can live up to be 25 years, so our calf milk bucket helps maximize your profit from your herd. Our calf milk bucket is made of bright galvanized metal. Milk bucket has a built-in nipple and valve for feeding young calves.
