Things You'll Need
- Goat's milk or goat replacement formula
- Cooking pot
- Large plastic bottle
Instructions
Pour goat's milk or goat replacement formula in a medium-sized cooking pot and warm it to about 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Kids will more likely drink warm milk than cold milk.
Fill a large bottle with six to eight ounces of warmed milk.
Shake the bottle thoroughly to reduce any hot spots in the milk.
Gently pry the goat's mouth open with your hand and place the bottle nipple inside its mouth.
Hold your hand around the goat's mouth with the bottle nipple inside. Have someone else rub the top of the goat's head with his hand or rub the goat's head with your chin. This simulates the feel of the goat mother's stomach and will help the infant goat become comfortable.
Feed the goat three times a day.
