Anyone heard of this recipe or one like it? I just happened along it and was curious.
- 1 gallon whole milk
- 1 can of evaporated milk
- 1 cup of cultured buttermilk

Also, would switching to this from just whole milk be worth it if the baby goat is thriving without it?

Hey Slipperygoose, how is you kid doing? Did you use the recipe? I recently rescued a baby girl that was so close to death from starvation and intestinal parasites she couldn't even lift her head. I started her on that recipe because he moma wouldn't let her nurse...long story, but I rescued her and her 2 babies. Anyway, this recipe was super rich and she is doing awesome.
