  • Assembles quickly to the Perfect Udder Colostrum Bags. 
  • Ideal for newborn calves that are unable to nurse yet are able to swallow.   
  • Round, ball-shaped end resists insertion into the trachea to increase safety during use.
  • Screws on the bag for a leak-proof fit.
  • Classic small features a 5/8" bulb for calves under 66 lbs. 20-inches in length.
  • Classic large features a 7/8" bulb for calves over 66 lbs. 20-inches in length.
  1. Always perform with the calf sternal or standing in a corner.
  2. Thread the tube onto the Perfect Udder Bag. Kink the standard tubes to prevent the flow of colostrum until the tube is fully inserted into the calf.
  3. While placing tube, do not overextend the neck of the calf. Insert tube with head in a normal position. The bulb of the Perfect Udder tube is specially designed to resist entry into the trachea.
  4. Palpate the neck of the calf as the tube is being inserted. Feeling the bulb passing under your fingers indicates proper placement of the tube. If there is any uncertainty, ask your veterinarian for training.
  5. Insert the full length of the tube until the cap is at the lips of the calf, then release clamp as necessary and raise bag to initiate flow.
  6. Allow entire contents to quickly flow into the calf. When all flow has stopped, lower the head of the calf and remove the tube in a downward direction to prevent any spilling of colostrum at the trachea entrance.
