New Mommas Losing Weight
I have two FF who are a little over a year old. One had twins and one a single. The momma of twins is keeping up with what I take and what they take, but she seems to be losing weight a little faster than I thought and the single is as well. I wormed both of them when they delivered and their 10 day postpartum worming too. They eat Noble Goat 16% (there is no way I can get Dairy Parlor here) with a handful of BOSS (once a day), free choice mineral, free choice hay and plenty of pasture/browse. What is the best way to get some weight back on these girls? I am starting to increase their feed by a little bit every day so I don't give them tummy problems. Is there anything else I should be doing?
