| Are you sure they don't have any clefts in their palate? I thought that was the only way milk could come out of their nose. The more you supplement the less milk Mom will make. I would try one of the milk increasing supplements for Mom to get her producing more milk. Either would probably be fine. I think the main objective is just to get her drinking more liquid so even the puppy milk replacer would work. Vaginal bleeding at two weeks past whelp could be normal as long as it isn't bright red blood or green or smells abnormally foul or is heavy. Take her temperature, if its between 101 and 102.5 she's probably just fine, as long as she is eating and drinking and your only concern is the discharge. Here's Julz's recipe she posted: 16 ounces of water (hot enough so the Gelatin will dissolve) 1 pkg Knox Gelatin 15 ounces evaporated milk (I put in 1 can) 2 tbs vanilla yogurt 2 egg yolks (a whisk really helps get this mixed in) 2 tbs white corn syrup Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let sit in fridge until thick. Spoon as needed. Here's feminvstar's recipe she posted: Vanilla instant pudding (large box) 3 egg yorks 3 cups goats milk serve slightly warmed in the microwave |
