Bottle feeding larger goats

[RoseFell Farms]

We have bottle fed Nigerians in the past but next week, we will be getting two, two week old Lamancha doelings that have been raised on a free choice feeder. Any advice on amounts and timing of bottle feedings?

I have some two week olds on the lambar right now and they are talking about 36oz a piece a day in two feedings. Probably would take close to 40 if you can feed three times a day.

At that age, our standard kids get 3 - 20oz bottles per day.
8, 2, and 8 pm.

Thank you! Between your answers and some more on it on some of the older threads in this section, I think we're good!

That's EXACTLY what ours are getting as well... at almost the same times.
