8 day old goats

Some people do, there is some recipe where they add 1 cup evaporated milk and 1 cup buttermilk to a gallon of whole milk (they'd pour off enough milk from the gallon to add both, shake to mix). This website explains it a bit, that it is used for kids not thriving on whole milk. When I had bottle kids, I used strait up whole cows milk and they did excellent on it. If you do feel you want to add anything, just be sure to make any change slowly.
 
What about how much, how often, and when to start decreasing. Can't find anything conclusive. How big of a pen. Would a 4x4 shelter be big enough.
