I've just read this from the top again & I'm struck by something - Mummypig, you say Jasmine is 16 weeks & you got her from someone who had her, switched her off Charlie Chin food which she was on from the breeder - is that correct? ...........If so do you know hold old Jasmine was when the breeder sold her to the other lady?
Riven's suggestion is a good one but you might find it easier here to use powdered goats' milk (Holland & Barratt sell it - here) because it is slightly easier to get hold of. Some people in the UK use SMA baby milk powder instead.
If you can't get hold of the items for Riven's mix then you can try this one:
1 part rolled oats (old fashioned porrage oats)
1 part SMA baby milk powder
1 part wheatgerm
1 part crushed pellets.
Oooo I have all those things here! I'll start right now.
Claire, I have not got a clue. Originally the lady I got her from emailed me and said "I have a YOUNG female, about the same age as Poppy..." and the day we collected her I was busy with the children so sent DH with the instruction as to find out her actual age and when he returned he said the lady told him she was 14 weeks (so that was 2 weeks ago!) ...
Now, this is the lady who we got Poppy from (she is a "hobby breeder") and she works in our local P@H and served me just before christmas, I asked her if she'd acquired the female beige she was looking for (she'd mentioned when we collected Poppy that she wanted a beige) and she said "no, but I got a black velvet about a week ago" so by my reckoning, Jasmine must have been no more than 11 weeks when the P@H woman got her.
