If they were starved then they are weak. That would be why they are still stumbling around at this age. Keep feeding them as you've been told by others on this forum. Keep it slow in building up amounts as they can go downhill fast if they get too much milk and get the scours....not something you want to deal with after everything else you've dealt with lately. Within a week or less that should change drastically and you're going to be asking us how to slow them down!
They are babies. Just like human babies they are sensing with their mouths. Everything is nibbled, tasted, etc. It's rather annoying, but normal. At least they aren't much like puppies and will chew up everything you own! They "peck" at you because you are essentially "mom" and that's how they would get mom to give them milk. Watch any baby animal suckle and they "butt" at the milk source continually...that triggers milk let down.
I don't think there are really any supplements at this age. Just milk. Their bones should all become less prominent as they get good food and start growing like they should. In about 2 weeks you can start leaving some hay and goat pellets out for them to nibble on. Can you get access to corn husks? Stupid, but they absolutely LOVE those dried out husks. I've seen 2 day old babies nibbling on them when they blow into the pen. (since been told that's where all the nutrients are in the dried stalks...so maybe it's not so stupid after all)
