[QUOTE="jimmyl, post: 7841474, member: 152852"] Thanks everyone. Has anyone ever used Teat Dip from Wynnstay through their robots? Just called them and they are offering a 0.29 iodine at £195 + VAT. Also another question on a slightly different subject... My dad has always wanted to use fresh milk to feed the calves (largely made up by the high cell count/waste milk) but my brother and i have been pondering a switch to milk powder (possibly Wynnstay Rich Cream). Like all seasoned farmers he doesn't like change so just wondering if many others had made a switch and could add their thoughts? Looks to me as though its marginally more expensive to feed the powder but when you factor in the time spent to separate the milk, constant cleaning of m4use buckets, and extra robot washes and the subsequent chemicals used, we reckon it could turn out to be a good option... and thats before you factor in the supposed benefits of not feeding high cell count or waste milk to the babies?
