[QUOTE="epfarms, post: 7848360, member: 8456"] We have a holm & laue auto feeder. Just finished our 6th year on it. Works very well for us and suits our system. You still need to be popping in the shed to check the alarm list a few times a day (they might have updated this by now with an app or something). Cleanliness also important as always. One thing I would say is you wouldn’t want calves of all sorts of ages in one pen. So our heifer calves are born in a 6 week block so they’re all similar age in each pen (20 per pen). First year involved a lot of tweaking (powder, sorting out drainage in shed) but the calves have absolutely thrived on it since. Happy to answer any questions you have. [/QUOTE]
