How Long

How long do you bottle feed. My babys are always wanting the bottle. They can hear my voice and come running.

Wethers I take off the bottle at 8 weeks, mainly because I am tired of putting obey into them. The does I am keeping this year I am shooting for 16 weeks, so they are hopefully ready to breed by this late fall.
