The CT5 is a peach calf teat that simulates natural feeding by squirting milk into the calf's mouth, replicating the flow of a cow's udder. This makes it particularly suitable for sick calves that have difficulty sucking milk through conventional teats. Teat feeding activates the oesophageal groove reflex, directing milk past the rumen and into the abomasum where it is correctly digested, reducing the risk of scouring associated with bucket feeding. Transverse slits on the end of the teat are positioned to minimise milk loss when not in use. Calves fed via a teat can gain an extra 1.4kg in weight to 12 weeks. A pull-through design makes the CT5 compatible with standard calf feeders.
