Subject: Computerized/Automatic Calf Feeders


I was wondering if anyone has any experience with computerized calf feeders. I'm looking into the delaval cf1000 and it looks like it could be a pretty nice deal. Are there any pros and cons to the different brands? Is there a lot of price difference between the brands? Are the quota's of 25-30 calves per nipple/feeding station accurate? Every bit of research I see says health problems go down in this setting vs individual stalls, is that your experience using them? When there are health problems is it harder to catch them vs in individual stalls? Thanks for any info, it's quite an investment and just wanted to hear what people think that are actually using them vs a sales pitch from the salesman.
