A modified device for collecting milk from guinea pigs.
A modified device for milking small animals is discussed. The advantage of these modifications are 1) quiet operation, 2) ease of operation in animal room, and 3) quick change to allow the same device to be used on different animals. This device can be tailored to the test size as well as milk volume expected. Construction is simple, and materials are inexpensive.
