lonikit: You can learn how to make milk from Soya beans. How do you feed it the beans? Do you mash it? |

A baby goat will not eat grass yet. the predominant food for now is milk. Fortunately, goats are herbivorous and milk for herbivores are easy to come by. Firstly you have to get a feeding bottle. the feeding bottle should have small teats that are somewhat similar to the mothers teats. then you can get fresh cow milk or goat milk if you can get where to buy it from. I have used cow bell in the past with fairly good results but I warn you not to use any other milk like peak, ..... or other sweetened milk. If you do, the baby goat will surely die of diarrhea (If you notice extremely watery poo that stains the body of the goat, stop the formula immediately). Trust me, I learnt the hard way. Same reasons you cannot give that to a human baby. You will have to feed it at least 6 times in a day. As she grows older, this will reduce. The goat will become imprinted (see you as one of it's kind) to you. Finally, if you observe baby goats with their mothers, you will notice that they lie quite close (bodies touching each other) during sleeping time, this is because of bodily warmth. Please keep the baby goat in a warm place. 1 Like |

mfm04622: Please do not feed anything apart from milk at this stage. Soya milk is not milk it's true sense. |

greygoblings: Has anyone tried raw egg yolk with the milk? Cos the natural colostrum consists of milk and a very high protein mix. I don't know how you guys maneuver this soyabeans stuff cos I think it contains too much carb that a kid goat might not be able to digest. |
