New Bottle Baby

I have been looking for a Bottle Baby for a while now. Well I finally found one. A lady I call all the time that is excellent when it comes to goats has 5 of them. I get to go and pick him up tomorrow (Sunday) I am so excited. I will not sleep tonight. I cna not wait. This will be my first Bottle Baby, so I hope everything goes good. I am going to keep him on the same schedule and formula this lady has him on.

Overly Excited,
Tina

Bottle babies are great. My son's buck would curl up in our laps after feeding. Now he is 150 lbs and still thinks he can curl up in our laps. He is so sweet and loveable. His doe was bottle fed too, she is sweet, but not like the "little" buck. She has a quiet, peaceful way about her, he is a little dickens. Always running and playing and gets sooo excited when you drive up to the house or walk down to the barn. Have fun and congrats on the baby buck.

Do you have other goats?? If not, you really should get another kid or that one will be very lonely.
