    Ewe2 pet lambs feeder.

    Iv been using a ewe 2 for years for pet lambs. Never any issues at all. Until this year. The water in bottom bucket is hot and steaming, yet the milk in putter bucket doesn’t stay warm warm. It’s slightly warm but not much. Is this normal for those type feeders? I never noticed it before
