feeding milk?

[ohiogoatgirl]

was just reading over on old thread and came across a link for protien supplements. one of the things listed is "dried milk products".
i have goats that i milk and am gettin more then i can use. would quail drink milk?

also i was wondering what about cheese or whey? i make my own cheese from the goats milk.

not sure what this would particularly add to their diet though... anyone know about that?

also... anything on feeding peas in a addition to feed? sunflowerseed?

thanks

I've read that since birds are not mammals they don't need milk and don't have the right enzymes to digest lactose. I haven't actually tried it to see what would happen. I would guess that no dairy would apply to cheese as well.
