Build your own milk feeding system!

Mountable teat feeders allow shepherds to build an orphan feeding system that fits their needs. Units are designed to pull milk from a non-pressurized reservoir.

Two DIY systems:

1. Plate Assemblies (single- or double-teat)
Attach to welded wire panels, or similar mounting surfaces that offer minimal support. Nipples fit through the back of the plate.
2. Wall Mountable Teat Units
Attach to walls or wood planks (via drilled holes). Nipples are inserted through the front of the teat unit.

Benefits

  • One-way valve prevents milk from flowing back into the container so the lambs will always have milk as soon as they start to nurse.
  • Built-in filter prevents clots from forming in the tubes—stops blockages and simplifies cleaning.
  • Feed 3–5 lambs per teat. Easier than individual bottles!

Tips

  • Mount assemblies at about the same height that the ewes udder would be from the floor. 10-14" is the average. Teat should be about one inch above the highest milk level of the container that the milk is in. This will keep the teat from dripping, wasting costly milk replacer.
  • Make sure to always have milk in the reservoir. If it runs out the lambs will abuse the teats and will require replacement.
  • To clean, dismantle the unit and submerge it in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry.

Steven Y from Virginia

I like how it works, is easy to take apart and clean. I am using it for a 1 month old buck goat. My goal is free choice feeding. So far he drinks from it very well, just has been slow to learn to come and feed free choice. He still needs to be directed after about 5 days. I am still optimistic yet that he will come and drink free choice.

If you feed a lot of lambs like we do—this kit is amazing. Actually even if you just feed one, I could see where it still would be amazing. We have used the buckets in the past and will continue, but this is better as the nipples for the system come as replacements.

We have been using the bucket style feeders with cold milk for a couple of years, but in the Texas heat, we struggled to keep the milk cold enough. The wall mount unit attaches perfectly to the outside of a cooler, which we are then able to fill with milk and ice jugs. Game changer! My little guy is now able to get ice cold milk during triple digit temps, and I don’t have the headache of having to schedule his bottles around my job. Would recommend this to anyone who bottle raises as an alternative!

I have 11 bottle lambs and wasn’t wanting to spend the money for an automatic milking system. I took an old cooler from the garage and set up the double teat unit on a welded wire panel. The setup works pretty good, you just keep cold milk in a container in the cooler and drill a couple holes for the tubing. My only complaint is the tubing is pretty hard to straighten out so it doesn’t always want to stay in the bottom of the container. Overall though this is a great alternative to bottle feed while working.

5 stars for Premier’s customer service. (FedEx lost the first one.) This feeder was desperately needed for two bummer lambs. They took to the new nipple right away. Assembly was slightly confusing because there is only a brochure. The nipple part is easy but, as to what to put the valves into for the milk was completely up to me. I ended up using a medium Ziploc bowl and poking holes into the lid that I then threaded the tubes into and then attached the valves. I didn’t use the weights provided mainly because I wasn’t sure where to install them according the instructions. It worked without them, though. To clean you have to disassemble the whole thing. Not a big deal, but hard to get the valves back into the tubes. I hope Premier makes an installation video with suggestions for the milk container.

About Conductivity

Conductivity measures the amount of electrical current a material can carry. The opposite measure is known as resistance.

Tinned Copper Superconductor

Many of Premier’s electric net fences feature a green and white superconductor that has both stainless steel and tinned copper filaments for optimal conductivity.

These “premium” nets are 10 times more conductive (38 ohms per 1000') than “basic” nets offered by our competitors. This enables the electric pulse to travel much farther and be less affected by weed contact.

Customers who are unhappy with netting are often those who’ve chosen nets from China or their farmstore equivalents.

Types of Line Posts

Line posts are built into the net. Three options are available.*

Line Posts Compared
  1. Single Spike (SS)
    The best choice, unless your soils are always soft or very hard.
  2. Double Spike (DS)
    Posts allow you to push in the spikes with your foot. When soil is hard or rocky, double spikes are more difficult to install and remove.
  3. Drivable Posts (DP)
    Allows use of a mallet or dead blow hammer for installing posts in dry, hard or rocky soil. Features a “spike stop” for extra support and internal fiberglass ribs for added strength.

Tip: To insert a line post into frozen or hard soil, use a power tool to drill pilot holes.

* Not all fences have all line post options.

About Positive/Negative (Pos/Neg) Nets

Is your area dry?

Conventional electrified fence systems rely on soil moisture to be effective. However, not all areas have the required moisture.

Dry soil increases resistance—a weaker, less effective pulse occurs that does not deter animals.

To overcome this, Pos/Neg nets* are wired to allow the use of every other horizontal strand as an extension of the ground terminal. Because half the strands are connected to the ground terminal or ground rod, reliance on soil moisture is reduced. A PowerLink must be purchased separately to make the secondary ground connection.

How it works…

In order to receive a shock, the animal must touch both a positive (hot) and negative (grounded) strand at the same time. This will deliver more pain to the animal than an all hot net (Pos/Pos) because moisture in the soil is not required to complete the circuit.

Pos/Neg fences can be converted to Pos/Pos in moist conditions. Remember, all fences must be kept free of vegetation.

* Not all fences have Pos/Neg options.

Line Post Spacing

“Plus” nets—6'8" spacings between built-in line posts*

Line Post Spacing

Standard nets—10' or 12' spacings between built-in line posts*

* Spacings are approximate.
Distance between built-in line posts may vary by product.

Essential Energizer Advice

  • Buy a larger energizer than necessary. When the fence pleases, most folks will buy more fence—and need additional output.
  • Use a low-impedance intermittent pulse energizer.
  • Use a fence tester to check the voltage often.
  • Use enough ground rod(s)—included with our energizer kits.
  • Don’t allow your lead acid battery to discharge below 40%.
  • Use insulated wire that is designed for electric fences.
  • Always connect the fence to an energizer, not an outlet.
  • Visit this link for answers to other common energizer questions.

Two Basic Types

  1. All-in-one Solar
    • Solar units are very portable.
    • Because they need a battery, these units are more costly to purchase and operate than plug-in units.
    • Batteries are less effective in cold temperatures (deplete faster).
    • Most farmstore solar units are too weak, in joules of output, to properly energize netting. That’s why we designed our own.
  2. Plug-in & Battery
    • Least cost to purchase and operate per joule of output.
    • Best for fences exposed to heavy vegetation.
    • Cold temperatures do not affect performance.
    • Recommended for whole-farm systems, but can be complex to install. Higher output requires more ground rods, underground cables, multiple output terminals, etc.

Dan Morrical joined the Iowa State University staff in 1984 as Extension Sheep Specialist after completing his doctorate degree at New Mexico State University. He held the rank of Full Professor as of July 1, 1995 and retired from full-time teaching in 2017.

While at Iowa State University, Dr. Dan Morrical was responsible for educational programs in all areas of sheep production, ranging from nutrition, genetics, marketing and management. Research areas focused on applied projects in the areas of nutrition, forage utilization, genetics, out-of-season breeding and lamb survival.

Dr. Morrical has been heavily involved in providing educational resources to the sheep industry. He has authored over 30 extension fact sheets, ration balancing software programs, grazing videos and co-authored the nutrition chapter of the SID Handbook with Dr. Margaret Benson from Washington State University.

Dr. Morrical now serves as Premier’s on-staff small ruminant nutritionist and sheep production advisor. Most recently, he’s introduced a line of “GOLD FORMULA” mineral premixes under The Shepherd’s Choice® brand, aimed to maximize hoof health and immunity.

Braided vs. Twisted

Braiding instead of twisting the horizontals increases the frequency of metal filaments on the outside of the strand.

Braided vs. Twisted Electric Net Fences

What’s the benefit?

  1. More metal is exposed on the outside of the strand. This enables improved animal to conductor contact. The electric pulse is better able to travel from the fence and into the animal, resulting in a memorable shock.
  2. A tighter, braided weave results in fewer snags when carried or pulled through pastures, reducing frustration.
