{"product_id":"jfc-eazyflow-calf-teat-black","title":"JFC EazyFlow Calf Teat (Black)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen a calf is born, the abomasum or fourth stomach is the only stomach that is functioning. Teat feeding triggers a reflex which causes a groove in the rumen (oesophageal groove) to close. This directs milk past the rumen and into the abomasum where it is digested. In addition, using a teat may also stimulate saliva production and maintain fluid intake in scouring calves. If a calf drinks from a bucket the oesophageal groove may not be activated and the milk will go into the rumen. As the rumen is not functioning, the milk is not digested and ferments, causing the calf to scour. \r\n\r\nCalves fed via a teat can gain an extra 1.4kg in weight to 12 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDescription: \r\n\r\nTeat feeding is more natural. Drinking from a teat helps the calf satisfy their urge to suckle. The CT9 EazyFlow teat is specifically designed to replicate the natural sucking action of a calf on the udder. ( 2 – 4 weeks old) It is fitted with a non-return valve to prevent milk from flowing back into the feeder, while openings on each side encourage the calf to correctly place the teat in its mouth thereby reducing leakage. \r\nIt is manufactured from natural rubber, and has a soft texture, but at the same time it’s sufficiently durable to last a complete calving season. This teat can be used with any calf feeder that has a 22mm opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFitted with a non-return valve preventing milk from flowing back into the feeder ensuring optimum delivery to the calf.\u003c\/li\u003e  \r\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured from natural rubber with a soft texture, but durable to last a complete calving season.\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n\u003cli\u003ePull-through teat can be used on any feeder with a Ø22mm opening.\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"JFC MANUFACTURING CO LTD#","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53202220876119,"sku":"CT950","price":5.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0383\/3043\/3676\/files\/CT950.jpg?v=1775138142","url":"https:\/\/www.grahamsofmonaghan.ie\/products\/jfc-eazyflow-calf-teat-black","provider":"Grahams of Monaghan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
