Dairy Kid Long Latex Teats
Product Details
Elongated latex nipple for dairy goat kids or other small ruminants accustomed to nursing from a longer teat. “Flat-back” design attaches flush onto Bucket Teat Units or Mountable Teat Feeders.
Due to flat-back design, washer (Item #565100) is included with each nipple. Use the washer to help prevent leakage between the bucket wall and the teat unit.
Instructions/Diagrams:
Bucket Teat Assembly Instructions 
Benefits
Our lambs prefer the short style latex nipples over the long.
Specs
- Dimensions: 2-5/8" x 1-3/8"
- Natural latex color
- (1) washer is included with each nipple
- Easy to clean
Tips
If the milk flow seems too slow, take a Pocket Scalpel (or other sharp knife) and enlarge the “X” slit in the end of the teat. Be careful! Do NOT cut the end too large or the milk will constantly leak out.
Precautions
Cannot be used on soda pop bottles.
Do NOT leave empty bottles or bucket feeders in the orphan pen. Lambs and goat kids will chew on nipples (in an attempt to feed) and damage the teats. A habit that is not easily reversed.

I have tried everything to get my bottle boer kids onto a bucket-feeding system for years. This year I purchased these nipples and my twin girls went right in with no issues. They’re currently 2 weeks old and going through a gallon of milk every 24 hours. Highly recommend it for fussy boer kids!

These look more like a goat teat than the short red rubber nipples. My Nigerian kids took right to these!
