If a new born Anglo Nubian kid weighs about 8lb. How much should they be gaining in weight each day?

I’ll tag some folks who have Nubians and larger breeds, I have nigies and they gain 2-6oz daily on average about.

My four ADGA Purebred Nubian does were all bottle raised and gained approx 0.40-0.50lb per day.

Our 50% nubian and 50% boer kids gain anywhere from 0.45lb to 0.90lb per day. Currently, our two 3 week old nubian/boer kids are averaging 0.60lb and 0.68lb per day.

Thanks for this, this is very helpful.
I’m getting a new 2 week old buck kid next week and just want to make sure he’s gaining weight ok, as I was seeing him today and he was a bit light on it.
