Abstract
A liquid feed injector for young animals and particularly calves comprises a collapsible reservoir and a rigid probe or feed tube connected by a relatively short length of flexible tubing. A fitting or closure cup for the reservoir is provided with an outlet nipple about which the flexible tube is attached and sealed. The construction facilitates the one-handed manipulation of the feeder while holding the animal's head with the other, the flexible tube acting as a shut-off valve during manipulation for placing the tube in the animal's throat. The reservoir may be flattened or rolled with the one hand during discharge of the fluid.
