OMG -- I'm SO impressed with this!!! If I HAD 9 million thumbs they would ALL be up. :D

I have blisters on my hands from my inverted syringe setup, which worked a LOT better than hand milking, but was a far cry from easy.

My new Udderly EZ Mare Milker arrived this afternoon, and I tried it out immediately. What was killing my hands and taking a very long time to accomplish just got done in about 30 EASY seconds. SO, SO easy. I've never been so impressed with a product.

I remember several years ago seeing something about it and thinking it was expensive, so didn't bother ordering one, in spite of thinking it looked like a good idea. Well, I now think it is WELL worth the money. I'm thrilled to have it, and it is going to make things a lot easier for caring for my little bottle baby.

If you don't have one, I HIGHLY recommend adding it to your foaling aresenal. I've had 20 years of never needing anything like this -- but now that I DO need it, I REALLY do. I couldn't be more pleased with it.

I give a HUGE second to this product. :yes: I milked every mare this year right after foaling and gave each foal a bottle before they stood. I have the highest IGG's in my vet's practice this year. My surviving twin pony foal had the highest :). My vet is so impressed he has been recommending it to all of his "breeders".

I took the plunge and bought one this year as well. And I can't agree with you more! It is the best!

I highly recommend it to anyone foaling mares.

Agreed. One of the most used pieces of equipment in the foaling kit. Makes saving colostrum so easy. And in your sort of situation, it's a godsend.
