Consumer feedback

«I was looking for a drinker that is easy to clean. With the La Bouvette drinker, when I change the straw bedding I lock the drinker in the tilted position. Straw does not get into the drinker, it is very practical. I was amazed by how quickly the drinker is filled. Cows have no problems with drinking ».
