A system for feeding farm animals comprises two milk tanks and a drawing line. The two milk tanks are configured to receive a stored full milk quantity and the drawing line comprises two drawing line portions each comprising a drain valve and each connected to one of the two milk tanks. A preparing unit is configured to prepare a liquid ration and a connecting line configured to connect the drawing line with the preparing unit. a cleaning unit comprises at least one cleaning agent container configured to receive a cleaning agent, and a cleaning agent supply apparatus configured to supply cleaning agent from the cleaning agent container to the two milk tanks. A control is configured to actuate the cleaning unit, the preparing unit, and each drain valve to guide the cleaning agent guided from one of the two milk tanks through the connecting line into the preparing unit.

The present invention provides a hand feeding, natural, self-regulating nipple nutritional system and method of use for a baby animal which allows the baby animal to latch onto a surrogate feeding nipple in which the speed of flow of liquid and quantity of liquid, such as milk, is regulated comfortably by the animal. In particular, the invention provides a soft, flexible, highly porous material affixed to a liquid-dispensing vehicle, in which the porous material is saturated with, and serves as a reservoir for, the liquid so that any excess liquid not ingested remains in the porous material. The porous material includes a nipple protrusion at one end to which the baby animal latches onto and suckles from until it is satisfied. The nipple protrusion has a density that is greater than the density of the rest of the porous material, which contributes to the high absorbency of the porous material and closely mimics the feel of a mother's nipple. Thus, the device and method of the invention prevent choking, aspiration and risk of death in baby animals in need of nutritional support.

A pet liquid feeding appliance includes an appliance body and multiple feeding assemblies installed at an outer end of the appliance body. The appliance body defines a discharge port for use in conjunction with the feeding assembly, and is further provided with a feeding trough. The feeding assembly includes a fixing piece and a nipple installed at one end of the fixing piece. Both ends of the nipple are each provided with a clamping slot. The fixing piece is provided with a clamping column for use in cooperation with the nipple. The fixing piece and the nipple are detachably connected to each other. One end of the clamping column is provided with a hook, and one end of the fixing piece is provided with a liquid outlet. By providing multiple feeding assemblies, multiple pets can drink together at the same time.

Various examples are directed to livestock management systems and methods. A first user computing device may display a GUI comprising a first animal visual element. The first animal visual element may correspond to the first animal and indicate a first colostrum feeding of the first animal. When a user selects the first animal visual element, the user computing device may display a first colostrum input screen for receiving first colostrum data. The user computing device may also modify the first animal visual element to indicate the time status of the first testing action for the first animal.

Animal feeding teats are often removed from a feeding receptacle for cleaning or for re-use on a larger receptacle. A nipple end of the teats is typically designed for use in a specific orientation to aid the suckling of a young animal, and therefore the teats need to be fitted to the feeding receptacle correctly. The animal feeding teat has a rectangular connection feature in a base end of the teat that is designed to mate with a similarly shaped feature on a feeding receptacle. It is considered important that the connection feature has only one or two lines of symmetry, so that the teat can only be fitted in one or two orientations relative to the receptacle.

A circular grazing system for poultry and/or livestock. The circular grazing system including a center pivot structure installed at a field. The center pivot structure may have a center pivot axis. The field may be a poultry and/or livestock grazing field. The circular grazing system for poultry and/or livestock may include an enclosure for containing poultry and/or livestock. The enclosure may extend generally radially from the center pivot structure to a circumference of the field. The enclosure may be rotably coupled to the center pivot structure such that the enclosure rotates around the center pivot axis.
