Back to square one !
Diablo lost a little weight yesterday and a little more today , so we are back to bottle supplementing! I am so disappointed , I really thought that he would be up and away with the progress he has made , but a combination of cold wet days and nights has taken its toil , and I think he has entered a vicious circle where he was too cold and wet to want to feed and then he was to weak to be able to feed , I had hoped that taking him in in the evenings would help , but clearly not enough! This evening he took 200mls of goats milk with extra double cream and it went down very quickly , almost instantly there was an increase in activity and now he is tucked up in the stables with his mum , feeding happily . Lets hope that a couple of weeks of supplementing will see significant improvement , after all there must be a tipping point when they weigh enough to feed well and run around ?!

I'm rooting for Diablo. One day he'll be big and strong and he'll say "pah, I laugh at your cold and rain" - somehow I hear him with a strong South American accent.
Fingers crossed for Diablo! Goats milk with double cream could be his elixir!!
How's he doing Suzanne? Have you tried the Cetophyton yet? xx
