[ALL ANIMALS]

I have 2 bottle babys A mini nubian premee And a mini lamatcha cross... I feed them when ever they were hungry yesterday but today im going to be feeding them every 4 hours But im wondering if i should feed the premee more often or Just keep it at 4 hours? I feed him how ever amount he wants so i dont have a sisific amount he eats

They Just tuned about 24 hours old so im starting to feed them normal goat milk instead of colostrom

Premies need more often and often benefit from being left on colostrum a little longer. How many days gestation was it?

no idea but his sister is full sized(Pretty big) Mom was a nigaren dowth and she had axdently had kids with my nubian buck when he had brocken out(mom is okay)

I feed my newborn lambs every 2 hours. Their tummies are about the size of a walnut and they only take about 2 ounces the first week. They grow quickly, the second week it’s 3-4 ounces every 3 hours. Third week is 4-6 ounces every 4 hours.

They will “tell” you if they are full or if they want more.

Update on the Premee he is a little taller then a normal newborn Nigaren dowth, He Is healthy and Playfull, He is still tiny but at least he can last 4 1/2 hours before needed to be feed. he does wait the full night(8-9 hours) Before needing to be fed.

That's always a relief when they can go all night without that bottle! Yep, I've BTDT too often.

Glad he's doing well.
