Loving the herd life
One of our does had triplets and they all thrived in Momma's care, the next doe had twins and they are doing great also. Third and Last doe had triplets and she is a good mother, she is nursing them all and is taking care of them. These babies are 5 days old now and the smallest is just not really growing. She allows all the babies to nurse but I am really worried the little one is not getting enough. Should I pull her and bottle feed her to ensure the other two are getting enough?
Momma is eating goat pellets, alfalfa pellets and a good quality hay with lots of clean fresh water.
Editted to add: When the bigger two are playing, the little one gets knocked over alot but always get back up. She is just not as strong, she was the last baby born.
