Registering the Animals
8.9 Registering the Animals
At animal registration the animals are allocated to several feeding groups according to their
animal numbers. You can choose between individual, group or automatic registration. The
animals can be allocated to four different groups (A, B, C, D), thus being fed group--specifi-
cally. Example:
Group A for heifers (less increase),
Group B for bull calves (more increase),
Group C for white veal calves,
Group D for other calves.
Group assignment is only related to the feeding plans according to which the animals are
fed. All animals can be fed at any feeding station irrespective of the group to which they
have been assigned.
Only valid for Combi feeders: animals being fed only with milk or only with milk pow-
der+water have to be allocated to different feeding groups.
