[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1342966, member: 1682"] I used them for a few weanings. I had the plastic ones with the wingnut to tighten them on and the protruding spikes. Stubborn calves would get them out or would suck through the hole in the plastic. I watched one calf suck, ramming the spikes into his dam's udder as he chowed down. Both were quite content with their situation. For the majority, they work. But you always get an odd calf that screws up your plans and I have no time for that. I went back to separation weaning which works 100% every time and is much less work. [img]https://www.valleyvet.com/group_images/28142_T.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
