It is a store bought (Dumor brand) bottle, pretty accurate I would hues being that half the time I bring water out in a gallon jug, it will fill the bottle 2 times and 1/4 or so, once you figure in for the milk replacer space in the bottle seems about right. The measuring comes with a container( that holds 2 cups) the rate is one cup per quart I believe (I will double check though), so one container per bottle. The grain thing may be tough and keeping him in with the other cows, I know for a fact the will eat it before he will, and our full grown cows get mean (pushy) over grain so we don't give it often. We keep it on hand for the horse & goat, and as needed when a cow gets in a pinch, one thing I learned (the hard way),even when primarily raising grass fed, grain has it places.
