Agri Health Milk Thermometer for Foals & Calves
Description
Agri Health Milk Thermometer - Boil Proof, Up To 110 Degrees
The Agri Health Milk Thermometer is a simple hand-held thermometer for checking the temperature of milk and milk replacer before feeding, reading up to 110 degrees. It is boil proof, which makes it best for anyone hand-rearing foals, calves, lambs or kids, or handling hot liquids in the feed room, stable or dairy.
Rather than testing milk by hand, you get a clear numerical reading so every feed goes out at a consistent temperature. It is a low-cost, hard-working item that lives in the feed room alongated buckets, bottles and mixing jugs.
