lambar

noun

1. a feeder for young mammals, particularly goats, consisting of a bucket ringed by a number of artificial nipples, each of which is connected to a tube inside the bucket that conveys milk from the bucket to feeding animals

   “...an automatic feeder called a Lambar can be used, or another type known as a Kid Saver.”

   “Newborn kids, after a day on colostrum were trained to consume goat milk from lambar nipples.”

   “Although it is possible to train very young kids to accept the lambar, this is usually only true for large ones. In order to ensure sufficient milk intake for the small kids, too, it was decided to use the lambar only from day 11 onwards.”

   “Heat-treated colostrum may then be poured into 20-ounce soda bottles, which work with either a Lambar nipple or Pritchard Teat.”

   “A small group is kept together until kids approach the lambar eagerly and take a teat; then the group will be made up to ten kids.”
