Our Cashmere kid of 3.5 months kept up her screaming at night,during the day she was fairly settled, She went to a friends place with another 14 angora goats, to see if they could wean her, same was succesful. She had been off the bottle for 2 weeks before she returned home. Then the problem started all over again. She screamed and carried on, and associated our home and us with YES the bottle and food. We have been unable to keep her, and she has now returned to where she originally came from, and is happy and settled in a herd of now 21 cashmere goats, she remains very spoilt, and has teamed up with 2 other motherless goats, who were also being weaned off their bottles. I thought I would just let you know. Our other goat is angora cross cashmere and he is quite happy to be by himself again!
Thanks for all your help and advise. Madelon
