[QUOTE="CowgirlUpNY, post: 377288, member: 4092"] Well I am far from an expert, but I've had a little experience with bottle feeding. Now do you mean bottle to bucket or bottle to grain? If it's bottle to bucket (pour the milk in the bucket and let him drink from there) I say as soon as you are able to get him to it. I've always had a little grain there to offer for him to sample although they just seem to play with it at first (and that's ok) If I remember correctly, we tried to wean from milk around 3-4 months, but our last one that we purchased, they were still giving him milk replacer at 6 or 7 months old. I stopped that quickly once he was here. There are many more people here more qualified than I, but I hope I gave you some helpful information. It's just what we do, not necessarily the right thing to do. [/QUOTE]
