How do you prepare squirrel formula ? Serv At what temp?
How long is mixed formula concoction good in refrig?
Is it okay to heat goat milk or yougurt?

[CrazySquirrelLady]

one part powdered FV to 2 parts warm water, STIR with FORK to get out the lumps. I add in yogurt by 3 tablespoons full, some don't. I put in FV to 50 ml mark on measuring cup then add 100 ml of warm water.

Yes warm up the goat's milk/yogurt too, won't hurt it if you warm it up one time from fridge.

I serve at around 100 degrees, where it is warm to touch, but not steaming hot.

FOx valley formula is good for 24 hours in fridge, then mix up new if not finished.

I put my 3cc syringes on top of the heating pad for 10 minutes, it is just right... but CAN get TOO HOT... CHECK before serving..


hope this helps you. This is what I DO, maybe not what EVERYONE does.
