Re: [AlpacaTalk] RE: Bottle Baby Kids - Carolyn
Hi Carolin & All:
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by goat milk being dead. Goat milk is naturally pasteurized (not actually, it's just that the butter fat is more uniformly mixed through the milk and does not separate easily) as it comes from the doe so does not have to be heated. If fed fresh it is the most universal, natural, baby food there is.
In an emergency I would feed goat milk whole to a crea. If I had an egg at hand I might add it.
One caution I would take would be not to over feed as a hungry crea can easily consume more milk than is good for them. Nature compensates for this by having the hembra come into her milk slowly. Someone thaught of everything when they designed these animals.
By for now, Wayne

<<<< Hi,.......me Carolyn or another? I've seen the posts on this topic on
AlpacaTalk. I early on used diluted goat milk, but have since found
that ordinary Vit. D milk with added whipping cream works great and is
readily
available. Have fed several over the years using this. They seem to
like it and do well, growing well and maintaining healthy beans.

Sorry Carolyn, there was another Carolyn who posted here about bottle
feeding goat kids - and then apologized for posting to the wrong
group.....but she sure did get a heated discussion going lol.
I don't know if she is a regular poster here or not, I didn't recognize
her addy.
I'll send that post to her privately just in case she is not a regular here.
I had posted my take on the question was to use goat's milk for bottle
feeding goat!
It is readily available in pretty much any grocery store. My only
complaint about it would be that it is "ultra-pateurized" which means
dead. So for the crias I would go with the cow milk which everyone
seems to have good luck with. I hope to never have to bottle feed
another alpaca!
Always good to see you post; hope your trip was good and I appreciate
you taking the time when you were in such a rush to offer advice to my
friend. I hope his girl is doing better by now, she was making some
improvement; but haven't heard in a while, so I can't help but worry.
Warmly, Janice
