Udderly EZ™ Milker
Makes obtaining colostrum from a difficult ewe or doe less of an "athletic event".
A few pumps creates a seal allowing the teat valve to open and release milk. The flow is not rapid, but effective.

Tips
- Wait up to 30 seconds for the ewe to relax enough to release milk.
- Once suction has been obtained, "bump" the milker into the udder - similar to the motion a lamb would make if nursing.
- When suction is obtained - try positioning the milker from various angles (also apply the "bump" concept while doing this).
- Try a few more squeezes than is advised if milk flow slows.
For animals with small teats: The package with rubber inserts (#556111) is needed or you can purchase inserts individually (#556115 or #556116). For goats order quart bottles (#556112).
How to Use
ATTENTION!! Silicone Inserts, (Liners)
Please read this Product information thoroughly.
At EZ Animal Products we are continually listening to our customers and are always trying to upgrade the Udderly EZ Milkers.We have found better Silicone Inserts to go into the #2 (large) extraction tube.
The top part of the Silicone Insert is flared at the point where it goes into the top of the hard plastic tube. This virtually eliminates any air leakage from around the top of the tube. (And is easier to assemble) Both the large and small Silicone Inserts fit into the same #2 Tube. (They will not fit into the #1 Tube) We are still including the #1 Tube into each kit because in some instances you may want to use it without an insert. Besides one being bigger than the other, each hard plastic tube is embossed with the number on the front of it.
Please Note: When inserting the large Silicone Liner into the #2 Tube, once you have it seated, you will notice that the top of it is still a little above the top lip of the extractor tube. Just push it down and it will seat around the top of the extractor tube. We will show this in the instructional video that we are working on at the present
It is still possible to milk most any animal without the inserts but they stop the possibility of any milk/colostrum from getting drawn into the pump.
REMEMBER!! Both silicone inserts now fit into only the #2 hard plastic extractor tube.

May be the best investment for the lambing barn I have ever made! We have always hand milked the ewes to tube babies if we are unsure they have nursed or as soon as place in jugs which we try to do within 2 hours of birth. This has made this process, especially at 3 a.m. so much faster and easier!!!

Does not have enough suction to pull milk from teets. I have tried all angles and pushing up into teet bag without success. I have placed it on my hand as well but seems to not have enough suction either.

Not so sure I like it. I tried it on my Finn/Dorset ewe and just could not get it to work. I then watched all the videos I could find, talked with the manufacturer, tried it again—well I got something to come out—like one squirt.
So, I decided it try it in my goat—took the insert out and just used to outer tube. It worked, but painfully slow. I'm not sure who was more irritated, me or the goat. They filled up so fast on the videos.
I really want it to work and would love for someone to show me how to make it work. I made sure to wet the end of it for better suction. I just find it frustrating and end up hand milking.

Great product... makes first initial udder flow a easy process.

I teach sustainable living and this is hands down the cleanest safest most efficient way to milk a goat for ones family. You wouldnt want this if you have over 3 goats or sheep but it is perfect for 1-3 animals. This is the second one I have bought, it lasts roughly about 4-5 years when properly cared for and cleaned. I wish it wasn't plastic but it does hold up well. Takes me 30-40 mins start to finish for one goat, including clean up.
