Feeder

BIOTIC automatic feeders — supporting healthy development of young livestock while saving time and labour costs.

AUTOMATIC CALF FEEDERS

Biotic automatic BOVI feeders help create stronger, healthier calves – and increase feeding efficiency and cost savings.

AUTOMATIC LAMB FEEDERS

Biotic automatic LAC-TEK feeders provide an effective solution for large and small-scale lamb farming, while saving time, reducing costs, and improving lamb viability.

FEEDING CALF

Automatic calf feeders

Biotic’s automatic BOVI-15 and BOVI-28 produce healthy calves, increase feed efficiency and help you save money.

Bio-automatic BOVI helps calves reach body weight quickly in a way that matches their natural feeding instincts.

Feeding by frequency and volume
BOVI allow calves to feed at their own frequency and volume according to their natural instinct.
Muscle development and meat quality
BOVI help ensure calves move around freely, resulting in animals with better muscular development, form and meat quality.
Warm milk feeding
BOVI support healthy calf development by allowing calves to drink warmed milk by means of a nipple – supporting the instinctive suckling action critical to normal digestive functioning, nutritional absorption, and overall health.
Individual consumption monitoring
BOVI allow monitoring and reports on individual calf milk consumption – offering valuable insight on calf health and development.

The BOVI System is an easy-to-use calf feeding system that takes automated feeding one step further by allowing you to program and control individualized meals for each calf or for animals of different ages.
Customized automatic feeding with programmable milk volume, quality and feeding frequency is available for up to 25 calves per feeder.
Program and control the maximum daily milk intake for each calf.
Monitor the health, well-being and progress of each calf. BOVI tracks daily consumption for better calf management, and the data offers valuable insight into each calf’s condition, nutrition and health.

Reduces labor, increases efficiency, saves on costs

BOVI provide an on-demand feeding system that saves time, reduces manual labor and generates cost savings. It is a 100% automated system with no hand mixing.

Significantly reduce labor costs and save time
The biotic feeder automatically manages the feed supply with minimal manual intervention. Cleaning and monitoring only takes 5 minutes a day.
Install anywhere
LACTEK can be located in any type of building and requires only electricity and running water.
Reduce product costs
LACTEK mixes only the amount of milk or milk replacer needed for each animal, helping eliminate excess product waste and reduce product costs.

FEEDING SHEEP / GOAT

Automatic lamb and goat feeders

Biotic automatic LAC-TEK feeders provide an effective solution for large and small-scale lamb farming.

Biotic feeders help support the healthy development of lambs through a system that supports their natural feeding instincts – while saving time, reducing costs, and improving lamb viability.

1. Increased milk yield
Research shows that the early removal of lambs (within 12 hours) from a milking herd can increase milk yield by 30-40%. Biotic automatic LACTEK supports that early removal by providing a feeding solution that fully supports the lamb’s natural feeding instinct.
2. Stronger, more viable lambs
Biotic automatic LACTEK offer a smart solution for feeding lambs in large litters (3-4) that may exceed the ewe’s ability to raise them. Our feeders also provide a solution for breeding herds where valuable lambs may be orphaned or ewes unable to produce milk.
3. Increased persistence
Continuous milk access gives lambs ability to feed at will according to their natural instinct.
4. Adjustable milk / powder ratio
Adjustable milk/powder ratio (strength of milk adaptable) allows weight and health monitoring for each lamb, and supports the natural weaning process.

Biotic LACTEK allows monitoring and reporting on consumption for individual lambs and goats – offering valuable insight into lamb health and development.

Reduce labor, improve efficiency, reduce costs

Biotic’s automated LACTEK provides an on-demand delivery system that saves time, reduces manual labor, and reduces costs. It is a 100% automated system with no hand mixing.

Up to 120 lambs per device
A single device can feed as many as 80 – or up to 120 – lambs and goats.
Significantly reduce labor costs and save time
Biotic feeders automatically manage feed supply with minimal manual effort. Cleaning and monitoring only takes 5 minutes a day.
Free movement
Biotic feeders help ensure lambs move around freely, resulting in animals with better muscular development, form and meat quality, and let them drink warmed milk through a nipple.
