So mama has decided she wants the little boy and doesn't want the little girl. She bites her and butts her away. So far I have been going out and holding mama and letting the little girl nurse, but I can't be here often enough to raise her like that. I am glad she has at least gotten some colostrum in her, and have a friend that has offered to bottle feed her for a while. I warned her she won't want to give her up after even a few days, but she is willing. I picked up some goat milk replacer when I was in Little Rock the other day just because it seemed like a good idea. Well, apparently a great idea! I sure hope she does OK.

Really cute kids. Congrats. I hope she warms up to the little girl.

We just went through rejection as well. Be careful with the replacer. There are some who find certain brands work well but there are many out there that cause problems for the baby. Many here use whole cows milk (the red cap kind from the store) when they don't have goats milk, or mix it with the goats milk to make it stretch.

I have wonderful results with milk replacer, but I make sure to buy the good quality kind that is an all-milk protein source.
