When it comes to oral gavage, the universe is divided into two camps: those who trained on and continue to use stainless steel, and those who use flexible plastic.
Disposable metal? Should you convert to a flexible plastic? If you’re just beginning to gavage, which path is right for you? What is best for the animal? Which is easiest to use?.
