I know what you mean mate, starngely enough no we dont get those problems, we get those problems when we feed them daily ( only one or 2 calves a year) So far we havent had any yet thos year ,they just suck on one calves ears and they go all ******, We are giving shed calves milk, water and meal the outside calves are getting milk meal water and grass,

Here is a link to the makers website http://www.stallion.co.nz/mobgrav.php The model we use is MG50lt, That one is slightly newer but still the same idea, Ill get some pics of the feeding tomorrow ofr you texas, Im in Manawatu In New Zealand , we have a good climate here and grow alot of grass year round here, Hope that info helps you mate

OUCH that would have hurt

Works for me With the mrs that is

The take the tractor and drill 40km away do 1 padock and come home, good in theroy, get the drill on the way, easy, have the harrows fall of on a bump , get to the run off, load up with the seed, get to the padock, have to set the drill up again Got 3 runs in to the padock, and noticed there was no chain on the seed box, it was on the ground, the drill wheel ( turns the cog to feed the seed) had gone flat, In turn the sand was been picked up of the wheel and jamming up the cog causing the chain to splay the joining link and chuckin the chain of, Had to drive 30 km again to get the trye pumped up , got back to the padock then had a beering colapese on me for the seed gearing, 5 hrs wasted nicely :
