Oh wow, I had no idea milk replacer wasn’t great. Thank you! I will get some whole milk and try that. He definitely hates the bottle so I’ll try putting it on my finger. Being a Pygmy, how much would you say he should be eating at a time? I read to feed him every 4 hours

Thank you! We’ve Miller her a little to try and help but it doesn’t seem to help. He definitely has teeth, I’ll have to feel them to see if they’re sharp. I appreciate your help!

No redness or cuts or anything. I read about mastitis but her udders aren’t hot or anything. She’s acting 100% fine except that she won’t let him nurse. You’re probably right and she’s just sore. Maybe giving her a break overnight and just keep trying to bottle feed is best

I was wondering that, so we did get some milk replacer and have been trying to get him to take it but he refuses it too. I’m sure it’s just the bottle and we have to keep working at it. It’s just strange to me that she’s been doing fine with him for a week and suddenly she isn’t. It’s our first...

She hasn’t let him at all today

That little coat is adorable! I thought about a heat lamp but I was worried it wouldn’t be warm enough. She sure shocked us having this little guy and of course it would be mid winter!

Thank you for the help! I appreciate it a lot

Oh yea, it’s going to be 20. I can bring him and mama into the house and keep them in my laundry room. How long until he would be okay to be outside under 40 degrees?

Hi! We have two Pygmy goats, had them for 4.5 years. On Christmas Eve, we went out to find a newborn baby. We had absolutely no idea she was pregnant. It’s supposed to be getting cold this week and we have no idea what to do to make sure baby stays alive. We have a pen but obviously mama and...
