The fastest way to get it will be to order from our memner, 4skwerls, who makes the HHBs She is now carrying TV plus syringes and nipples. Order at http://henryspets.com and let her know you need it NOW - is she ships overnight Monday you will get it Tuesday. In the meantime you will need to feed your baby a home-made formula, but please for the sake of the baby, do not feed this for more than 4-7 days. It's a great temporary replacer milk but it lacks certain vitamins and minerals that the babies need to thrive. This recipe will ensure that your baby will be well nourished until your order of Fox Valley arrives.
Jackie (Jackie in Tampa) has graciously offered her temporary replacement formula recipe.
Jackie's Goat Milk Recipe
1 cup goats milk
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup dannon all natural vanilla yogurt
Mix well and keep in a covered plastic or glass container in the refrigerator. Replace after 48 hours.

Steve,
If I send the FV via Priority Mail it will take 1-2 days. Express Mail is "next day." Express is $11.00 more. If cost is a problem I can pay for it out of Henry's Fund. Be sure to put a note saying the FV is for you and how you want it shipped.

Crazysquirrels: I am not sure about stores out in your area but goat's milk is pretty easy to find even here in Ohio. I have to drink it myself instead of cow milk and it is found at a lot of groceries if they have a health section, but you can certainly find it at any health food store. Do you have Whole Foods out there? If so, that's a guaranteed place that will carry goat milk. :thumbsup

Sorry, I was typing between working outside in yard....brain not working! If there's any trouble getting your order in before 4 p.m., shoot me a PM so I can make sure and get it in the mail anyway, okay?
