I used the puppy milk replacer that Walmart or TSC sell. Lady from Kentucky told me she does that and mixes 50/50 with Pedisure as that is what her vet advised for vitamins and electrolytes. Main thing is get it to the right temperature too hot or to cold will kill them. Keeping the pups warm, wetting their bottoms to stimulate their bowls and feeding at least three times a day is a lot to handle if you are not prepared.

Friends of mine used cow milk a little sugar and added some Malt O Meal to thicken it. So a lot of different solutions will work.

I'm using the PetAg Milk Replacer Plus. I'm assuming it'll do the job.

I would read this, use the goat milk, a measured bottle that has a nipple modified, if the pups blow milk out there noses they are gettting to much hole to big. I would p.m or call Cyntha about the sponges, keep them warm and good luck.
