Bottle Babies - Human reared goat kids
I'm thinking making an ebook specifically aimed at bottle reared goats.
We recently lost a doe, Sage, just 2 days after she kidded. As a result her 2 babies are now being hand reared by the Handy Helper and myself. I've had a few questions from new homesteaders around bottle rearing and it can be tricky.
The videos online show healthy babies running for bottles and drinking easily. It's a bit deceptive as a lot can go wrong.
I would love it if you could post any questions you might have around bottle reared goats?
Anything, there are no "dumb" questions. I want to cover as much as possible to give homesteaders all the info.
Pictured is Cookie and Cream, who are now 3 weeks old. The second picture is just after I found them in the paddock. They were nearly a week premature and I really did not think Cookie would make it, but he is a fighter.
