How about weighing it?Has anyone come across a dipstick/volume gauge that can be dipped in a part-used container of drench to check how much is left to use? Sure there must be a better way than tipping into a jug, but unsure how to adapt a ruler into a litre-measure!
Always wondered what to do with those small spring scales!How about weighing it?
Weigh an empty and a full to see how heavy 5 litres is and go from there.
Just get a bamboo cane
... & ram it down the sheep's neck?Just get a bamboo cane
Only seen that on oil containers...A lot of bottles are marked
Thought u wanted to check how much drench was left in a container not see what the ewe had for its tea?... & ram it down the sheep's neck?
Ah yes - but as with everything these days: unopened containers aren't full to the neck so dipping partially used ones doesn't gauge remaining volume too well...Thought u wanted to check how much drench was left in a container not see what the ewe had for its tea?
Yep, but I tend to spill when in a hurryMeasuring jug, large oil one!
But what does that, or an uncalibrated dipstick tell you on an irregular shaped container? Ok if you just want to guestimate quantity left to know if enough to do a group of lambs. But it will be approximate.Dark room, bright LED type torch - shine in the neck - you should see the level quite easily.
