MAI Stainless Steel 1/2” Probe with Halkey Roberts Clamp and Cap is used with 2-liter screw-on standard calf bottles for tube feeding calves. Includes threaded vented cap, flexible tube, Halkey clamp and rigid stainless steel probe. Turns calf bottles into an esophageal feeder to ensure your calf gets all the colostrum or electrolytes it needs. Probe is barbed to securely hold tubing. Single piece vented cap fits standard milk feeding container with threaded mouth. Features Halkey-Roberts clamp with 6 heavy-duty ratchets to regulate flow rate.
Fill with desired fluid for administration. Pass esophageal tube into the mouth and down the throat angling for the left back corner of the mouth for proper placement down the esophagus. Once the tube is in place, release the clamp and allow fluid to flow while holding the bottle above the animal’s head. Once fluid has run in, clamp the tube off while slowly and gently remove from the calf’s throat to avoid injury.
