[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1613195, member: 39373"] I have raised 3. All 1 at a time. I've never raised a group so ymmv. Always bottled twice a day as per directions. Always had a couple days of scours. Totally agree on absolutely no water from a bottle. Goes into the wrong compartment when ya do that. They drink water from a bucket. Idk Start grain/feed immediately. I've always started by hand feeding. They like me to kinda drop it in their mouths as they look longingly up to the sky! Lmao I finally had to stop that with my newest one. She wouldn't eat from a pail. Only from my hand. Had to pen her up for a day in an 8x8 pen with her pail of feed and some water. Wouldn't ya know, she figured it out. I cut her bottle to once a day until that bag was gone. Full feed since then. Easy sailing... Never tried the powdered milk. But imagine itd beat nothing in a pinch for sure! Ive been using the ultra24 multi species. 24 percent protein. No soy. Good tip!! Thanks! [/QUOTE]
