I begin weaning at 4 weeks and totally wean by 5 weeks, their teeth begin to hurt mom's teats, she becomes far less tolerant to nursing by then.
I first begin with a mush, royal canin baby puppy pulverized mixed with goats milk. By 5 weeks I quit pulverizing it and let it slightly soak before feeding as well I keep a small bowl of the hard food available. Once I see them eating a lot out of the hard food I stop adding goats milk and only feed the dry.
