well as a rabbit breeder myself , i know that the mothers milk is definetly better as this helps the rabbits imune system . i have never tried using goats milk.hope this helps . x

Evidently for some reason, you do not have Mama to feed the babies and are going to bottle feed. So lets give you some real and practical answers. Yes, goats milk is an acceptable substitute for rabbit milk but you should add 1 T. of white corn syrup to every cup. They do make a kitten milk re-placer that is also acceptable and probably easier to use unless you are actually milking a goat and not buying canned goat milk. Now don't forget to be a good mama rabbit and use a cotton ball dipped in warm water to stimulate the baby rabbits to urinate and defecate until they are big enough and old enough to do this themselves (about 10 days to 2 weeks). Mama rabbit licks EVERY baby after she feeds to make sure they are functioning properly.

Is milk healthy for rabbits?

Baby rabbits drink their mother's milk, i.e. rabbit milk. If the baby rabbit is domestic and orphaned, you can try feeding it Kitten Milk Replacer (KRM); if the rabbit is wild, use goat milk. However, it can be very, very difficult to hand-raise rabbits, especially if you aren't experienced. If you find yourself in charge of an orphaned baby rabbit, do lots of research and contact local experts in your area. See the related link below for a place to start.
