Natural Latex Teats
Natural latex teats have the most "teat-like" feel.
We use latex to get them started and then switch them over to Red Rubber Teats.

These are the best for the bucket. I opened the holes a little more and replaced the old red ones with these and they’ve held up great to over 20 bottle babies on one bucket. I make them take turns and always remove the bucket so they can’t tear it up; I spend more time mixing the power than I do actually feeding babies thanks to the bucket set up.

I much prefer the latex nipples for the bucket. It is much easier to get the babies to switch from a bottle.

These hold up very well on the buckets and the lambs adjust to using them very well.

If you have trouble with getting these seated pull the latex or rubber onto the male part of the teat unit first before you screw the nut over the nipple. Don't put the nipple into the nut and then try screwing that back over onto the teat unit. It will work that way sometimes but I have better luck seating it onto the unit first.

Usually once the lamb has sucked on the Pritchard Teat I then put them on the Premier bucket with this latex teat at first, with a couple rubber teats off to the side so they get used to them for when they are older. I find they start on these much quicker than going right on the rubber ones first.
Older lambs will chew these, especially if the bucket runs empty so have some red rubber ones ready for later on.
