We also bottle feed our kids. Are you milking the mom? Hopefully you are and feeding this milk to the kid, milk replacer is fine on older kids, but rarely grow out nice kids when fed from day one. Make sure you are also milking the other sides of the udders of the does who are just nursing one. Once their babies are bigger they will nurse both sides, otherwise your udders will be uneven, and one side will dry up.

I am not really clear on why you think she would get mastitis? Vicki
