~ 2018 Breeding Schedule ~
Discount of 10% for bottle kids picked up at the farm between 4 weeks old.
We are hoping to have almost all of our 2018 babies bottle raised to ENSURE they are super friendly & people oriented. We will be selling kids after 4 wks of age w/ASSURANCE that they are bottle raised by their new owners until weaning age of 9-12 wks.
The kids 1 week and older will be on 3x a day bottle feedings, approximately 7am, 2pm, 10pm. They will have their first CDT vaccine, dewormer, and coccidia treatment. All kids will come with a "NEW GOAT OWNER GOODY BAG" which includes a bottle, nipple, next doses of any medications w/instructions, current feed including loose goat minerals, baby goat grain and a small amount of hay to slowly transition to the feed of your choice. Your goody bags also have print off's of our very helpful New Goat Owner pages for you to use & learn from. The babies will be bottle fed 50/50 fresh goats milk and Whole Cows milk (the basic Vitamin D Whole Cows milk from the grocery store) to make it easier to transition to a 100% Whole Milk diet in their new home. WE DO NOT ADVISE USING ANY MILK REPLACERS! We will provide you with enough goats milk to safely & slowly transition to the 100% Whole Milk feeding routine during their first week in your home.

Baby Bottle Feeding
We believe whole-heartedly that a baby is best left with it's momma in those early days. We want our babies to get that wonderful colostrum in the first few days and to build that beautiful mother/kid bond. We spend time with the kids every day socializing them to people. After a week or two we will start teaching the kids to take a bottle so that we can begin separating them from mom at night & during shows. It also helps to make them friendly. A basic rule of thumb for bottle feeding goats is to feed 10% to 15% of the kids current body weight per day. We do not use replacers at all... we are fortunate to have goats milk onhand and we mix it 50/50 with Whole Cow milk from the local grocery store.
This is a basic bottle feeding schedule (we believe feeding smaller amounts, more often is KEY to avoiding issues):

This is a basic bottle feeding schedule (we believe feeding smaller amounts, more often is KEY to avoiding issues):
- Day 1 thru day 3 feed 2-3 oz. goat colostrum every 2-3 hours.
- Day 3 thru day 7 feed 3-5 oz. PASTURIZED goats milk and/or whole milk, 4-6 times a day.
- For weeks 2-3 feed 6-8 oz. PASTURIZED goats milk and/or whole milk, 3-4 times a day.
- For weeks 4-6 feed 8-10 oz. PASTURIZED goats milk and/or whole milk 2-3 times a day.
- For the next 6-8 weeks feed 10-12 oz. PASTURIZED goats milk and/or whole milk 2 times a day.
- To wean, cut back to smaller amounts 2x a day for a few days, then to once a day for a few days to encourage the kids to eat 'normal' goat rations.
