Apparently the latest advice from a animal health officer from a certain local authority is the bar on your creep feeder is to low for the adult cattle to get in can you adjust it please to allow the cows to get the feed.

Even my 3 and 5 year old can grasp how a creep feeder works.

Then it needs replying to in writing to the sender and everybody that's higher up the food chain than him at Animal Health.
Put the letter up on here I'm sure there's a wordsmith on TFF who can draught you a tersely worded reply, in words of one syllable or less, that even the dimwits at Animal Health can understand.

A creep feeder provides a physical barrier that only allows smaller animals access. They typically have a pen with narrow vertical bars and adjustable horizontal bars protecting entry to the feeder. This allows smaller animals to enter and feed on precious and expensive minerals while keeping adults out.
