Description
Transformative Ad-Lib Rearing Capacities
A single Heatwave® Milk Warmer unit is equipped to support high-density seasonal stock groups:
-
Up to 30 Calves
-
Up to 50 Lambs or Goat Kids
By allowing calves and lambs to feed naturally according to their internal hunger cues, the abomasum (fourth stomach) never becomes overfilled. Consequently, this optimises protein absorption, encourages earlier starter intake, and supports rapid growth rates.

⚠ Best-Practice Rearing Advice:
-
Always ensure fresh, clean drinking water and a high-protein starter pellet are freely available alongside the Heatwave® system to encourage early rumen development.
-
Position non-return valves close to the teats so milk remains primed in the line, allowing newborn animals to receive milk instantly on the first suck.
