Hi Bobbi.Right up my alley.I have 3 of those.Hence the handle GOAT MOM. First get moms first milk into the baby. Its vital to the kids imune system.she will make colostrum for about 3 or4 days. You can tell if its colostrum if it doesnt foam when you milk it into the pan.It freezes well .It keeps for about a year I m told.I feed 4 times a day .You might have to force the bottle on him~her, Once they get it ,the rest is easy.I use soft black lamb nipples.I get them at the feed store. co-op.Start 4oz They will quit when thier full.At 2 t3 monthsI start them on pan feeding.Then I start weaning.If your schedule wont allow this ,feed when you can. they wont die,they just sound like it.leave the kid with mom, but watch her they some times beat up on the kids.Reasons unknown to me.
