When hand-rearing orphaned animals it is recommended to seek veterinary advice as soon as possible to discuss any necessary medical care, such as administration of an electrolyte solution. It is impossible to give precise daily quantities for feeds due to variations in the species of animal, age, size and breed. However, our suggested daily guidelines are given below. It is important to weigh young animals daily so that you can monitor their growth increase.

Use the table below for approximate feeding guidelines.

Using the scoop provided, add Beaphar Small Animal Milk to warm water (allow boiled water to cool before use) and stir until completely dissolved. If required, allow to cool further until lukewarm (38°C or blood temperature). The use of proper feeding equipment is highly recommended, such as the Beaphar Feeding Set or Beaphar Feeding Syringes. These should always be clean and sterile.

Prepared Beaphar Small Animal Milk can be refrigerated for 24 hours but should be reheated to 35­38°C or blood temperature before feeding to young animals.

What makes Beaphar Small Animal Milk the perfect product for orphaned, pregnant, lactating or convalescing small animals?

We have over 100 years of experience of manufacturing milk replacers, and what makes our Beaphar Small Animal Milk the best choice is it′s formulation. Rabbits, hedgehogs and rodents are all naturally lactose intolerant, but kitten and puppy milk replacers often have high lactose levels making them inappropriate to give small animals.

Beaphar Small Animal Milk is ultra-filtrated, reducing the lactose level to just 1.1%. It also contains a host of other quality ingredients to help small animals grow and develop.
