What is the difference and could I just use evaporated milk instead of goats milk? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
We are having 2 litters due Aug 4th and we found out today between our girls we could have anywhere from 10-12 puppies so I thought it would be a good idea to keep the ingredients handy. |
I've always used the Goats Milk.....but, only do it the first 24 hours. It's a recipe that was handed down to me by my mentor......I've never tried it with the evaporated milk. However, I do use the evaported milk for the whelping pudding that I feed mother throughout the time she's nursing. It's worked for me, so I haven't questioned it. And only use it initially just to give mother strength and help with milk production.
