Then milk will be mixed with an additional amount of hot milk to complete the portion at a predetermined temperature and ambrosia lamb feeder will automatically redistribute it to lambs or kids again.
The milk portion preparation process & the reheating - re-circulation is taking place 24 hours a day according to the demand .
On the closed circuit diagram above there are 8 feeding stations . Each feeding station consists of 3 nipples, In total 24 nipples.
On this installation can be fed 600 to 720 animals. Each nipple can feed 25- 30 kids or lambs per day
