Homemade Milk replacer for Goat Kids or Lambs

Things you'll need:

1. EvenFlo Glass Baby Bottles

2. Whole milk (1% or 2%)

3. Corn Syrup

 

Steps

1. Fill the baby bottle with mostly whole milk

2. Add about half a cup of corn syrup

3. Shake 


We use this for all of our new Goat Kids that are new to our farm, and if we are trying to ween them slowly off of their mothers and degrade down to bottle feeding, and then drinking milk out of a bucket, and then down to water.

 

 

NOTE: Never use brand name goat milk replacers! They can cause scours in your Goat Kid and many other illnesses!
