First two weeks calves receive milk from their mothers. Four day old calves are started on what is called calf starter which is a mix of oats, cracked corn, soybean meal, molasses, salt, dicalcium phosphate, limestone, minerals and vitamin premix. They start off with 6 ounces and then are increased in the third and fourth weeks of life. Clean fresh water is introduced at four days old. Hay should not be fed to calves until they are weaned or eight weeks old.

How should baby goats be weined?

Baby goats should be weaned gradually by reducing their milk or formula intake over a period of 1-2 weeks while providing increased access to hay, grass, and water. This transition should be done ensuring the baby goats are consuming enough solid food before completely cutting off milk or formula. Sudden weaning can cause stress and health issues for the baby goats.
