I'd hate to keep them seperate all day. What if I just keep a fitted t-shirt on her, or pj's? Then they wouldn't be able to get to the milk. Maybe that would work?
I'm sorry, I should have made myself more clear. Free Feed is used with Dry food only. Nothing else added. Why don't you just start giving your MaMa short breaks throughout the day. Say one hour away, and fifteen minutes with the babies. Something like that. This was Mama gets use to being away and the babies get use to Mama being gone. Increase the time apart every couple of days until Mama is gone all day and night. Of course, that will also be the time the babies go to their new Mama's. A t-shirt might do the trick, since they are eating on their own so well. Let me know how it works.
