How to mix | Official Vetafarm directions

Always mix Neocare fresh before each feed. Always use a fork (not a spoon). Never microwave. Target feed temperature 38–41°C.

Neonate / transition (start runny)

  1. Add 2 small level scoops of Neocare to a mixing cup.
  2. Add 1 large scoop + 1 small scoop of boiling water.
  3. Fork-mix ~30 seconds until smooth with no dry lumps; check temperature; feed.
  4. Over the next ~48 hours, gradually thicken toward the regular mix below.

Regular feeding mix

  1. Add one large level scoop of Neocare.
  2. Add one large scoop of boiling water; fork-mix ~30 seconds to a thick paste.
  3. Add 3 small scoops of cool water; mix ~2 minutes until even and smooth.
  4. Confirm no dry lumps; check temperature; then feed.

Feeding frequency (manufacturer): First feed ~5–6 am; last feed ~10–11 pm. Once every 24 hours, usually at the start of the day, allow the crop to empty completely. Record weight daily before feeding. Species and age change volume—research thoroughly before you begin.
