Key Features:
- Specifically formulated to match the composition of guinea pig milk.
- High in Protein Content - to sustain the rapid growth of pups.
- Contains stabilised Vitamin C - an essential nutrient for guinea pigs.
Success in hand-rearing young guinea pigs (pups) greatly improves if they receive colostrum at birth. Pups that don't get colostrum from the mother can be fed Impact Colostrum Supplement. Commence feeding Wombaroo Guinea Pig Milk Replacer after the initial feeds of colostrum.
Making up Milk:
To make 1 litre of milk: Add 190g of powder to 850ml of warm water.
To make 105mls of milk: Add 20g of powder to 90ml of warm water.
Add half the water to the powder first and mix to a paste. Then add the remaining water and mix thoroughly. Pre-boil the water to ensure it is sterilised. If the water is too hot it can cause the milk to curdle. If it is too cold then it will be difficult to disperse the powder. Wombaroo contains elevated protein levels, so the milk needs to be well mixed to prevent it from separating out. An electric whisk can be used for mixing larger quantities. Milk can be stored in the fridge for a day or can be frozen for up to 2 weeks. It is useful to make-up larger quantities and store it frozen in small portions (eg ice cube trays), so that the required daily feed volumes can be easily thawed out. Once thawed out, discard any unused milk, and wash feeding utensils thoroughly.
Feeding:
Warm milk to about 35°C. Feed from a syringe or bottle with teat, a Wombaroo P Teat is recommended. Feed every 2-3 hours for the first 5 days, reducing this to every 4 hours thereafter. Once significant solid food is being consumed the quantity and frequency of milk feeds can be reduced accordingly. Pups will need to be stimulated to defecate and urinate in the first week of life. As pups are well-developed and mobile, they may be encouraged to lap soon after birth. To avoid dehydration during periods of hot weather supply plenty of fresh water. Consult your veterinarian or breeder for particular advice about caring for young guinea pigs.
Growth:
Different breeds of guinea pigs have different growth rates. Carers should contact their veterinarian or breeder for information about the growth rate of their particular breed. Weigh pups regularly to verify weight gains and determine the volume of milk to feed. Overfeeding milk can cause diarrhoea so feed the suggested volumes in our tables.
Weaning:
Pups may begin to show interest in solid foods around 2-3 days of age. Ideally pups should have access to caecotrophs (caecal pellets) from a healthy adult animal to help establish the correct gut flora. Initially establish young guinea pigs on hay, green leafy vegetables and some pellets. Once they start to eat solid food continue to increase solids and reduce milk intake until they are fully weaned at around 14-21 days. Avoid any foods containing high levels of starch or sugars (eg root vegetables, grains or fruit) until fully weaned. Because of their ability to eat solid foods from an early age, many carers will tend to wean guinea pigs early (around 5-7 days). However this practice restricts protein intake at the peak growth stage, and may lead to developmental problems and even stunting of growth. We recommend to maintain pups on some milk for as long as possible (up to 21 days) as is the case with mother-reared pups.

Wombat Milk Replacer 0.4 is a nutritionally balanced milk substitute for wombat joeys with between 40% - 60% of their pouch life completed.
Joeys at this stage have darkening skin to fine fur, eyes nearly opened to just opened, ears erect. Completely confined to the pouch, but may poke head out occasionally. Faeces toothpaste consistency.
Key Features
- Specifically formulated to match the composition of mid lactation wombat milk.
- Moderate energy milk, with a balance of carbohydrate & fat content.
- Protein high in sulphur-containing amino acids (cysteine & methionine) for the onset of hair growth.
Wombat milk composition changes significantly as the joey ages. Wombat Milk Replacer 0.4 is specially formulated for mid lactation, just before the onset of rapid hair growth. Joeys at this age are prone to disease and mortality and should only be attempted by experienced carers.
Joeys can be aged according to their physical characteristics (hair growth, body length measurements etc.). Body weight is not a good indicator of age because this can vary greatly with body condition and level of dehydration.
Making up Milk
To make 100mL of milk: Mix 19g of powder (2½ scoops) with 90ml of warm water.
To make 1 litre of milk: Mix 190g of powder with 900ml of warm water.

Wombaroo Granivore Rearing Mix is a balanced diet designed for rearing or supplementing grain-eating (granivorous) birds such as parrots, cockatoos, finches, doves, pigeons and quail.
Granivorous birds obtain most of their energy from the complex carbohydrates in seeds and grains. In the wild, they also consume fresh green seeds, fruits, plant material and some insects. In captivity, many birds are fed mainly dry seed diets, which can be low in essential nutrients. Wombaroo Granivore Rearing Mix provides the additional protein, fats, vitamins and minerals needed for optimum health, particularly during breeding and chick-rearing seasons.
Key Benefits:
-
Ideal for Hand-Rearing: Elevated levels of protein, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals for improved chick health and growth.
-
Supplement for Breeding Birds: Supports the increased nutritional demands of breeding adults.
-
Nutritional Support: Can be used as an assist-feeding formula for young, sick or malnourished birds.
Directions for Use:
Feed as a complete diet for hand-rearing chicks, or as a supplement for adult birds.
-
Hand Rearing: Mix the powder with warm water to form a slurry suitable for spoon or crop feeding. Follow the directions on the pack.

Wombaroo Echidna Milk Replacer Late Lactation (formerly called >30) is a nutritionally balanced milk substitute for echidna young greater than 50 days of age.
Finely-furred with spines just emerging to fully-spined. Faeces toothpaste consistency to soft then firm pellets.
Key Features
Specifically formulated to match the composition of later lactation echidna milk.
Very high energy (fat) content milk to cater for infrequent feeding intervals.
High in protein to coincide with peak growth rate.
Low in carbohydrate to avoid digestive upset and fermentation of milk in the gut.
Also suitable for young platypus.
Feeding Guidelines:
Echidna milk composition changes significantly as the young ages. Echidna Milk Replacer Late Lactation is specially formulated for older juveniles, when they would normally be deposited in the burrow (greater than 50 days of age). At this stage they are growing spines, and rapidly increasing in body weight. These animals require a high energy (fat) milk to cater for infrequent feeds, and large quantities of protein for growth. Note that age estimation of echidnas based on body length or weight becomes inaccurate after 50 days of age.
Success in hand-rearing furless echidnas greatly improves if they receive Impact Colostrum Supplement within a week of coming in to care. However Impact may also be of benefit to more advanced, spined young with a compromised immune system. Refer to "Directions for Marsupials" under the Impact feeding guidelines.
Making up Milk:
To make 100mL of milk: Mix 36g of powder (5 scoops) with 70ml of warm water.
To make 700mL of milk: Mix 250g of powder with 70ml of warm water.
Add half the water to the powder first and mix to a paste. Then add the remaining water and mix thoroughly. Pre-boil the water to ensure that it is sterilised. If the water is too hot it can cause the milk to curdle. If it is too cold then it will be difficult to disperse the powder. Wombaroo contains elevated protein and fat levels, so the milk needs to be well mixed to prevent it from separating out. An electric whisk can be used for mixing larger quantities. Milk can be stored in the fridge for a day or can be frozen for up to two weeks. It is useful to make up milk in larger quantities and store it frozen in small portions (eg ice cube trays), so that the required daily feed volumes can be easily thawed out. Once thawed out, discard any unused milk, and wash feeding utensils thoroughly.
Feeding:
Warm milk to about 30°C and feed from the palm of the hand or a shallow rubber bowl. Thorough washing of hands and wearing of powder-free disposable rubber gloves may be useful to reduce the risk of contamination with micro-organisms. Echidna young suckle vigorously and milk can be consumed up to a rate of 2ml per minute. This rapid intake of milk with a high nutrient content means that young echidna feed infrequently. In the wild, burrow young (>50 days of age) are only suckled by their mother about once every 5 days. Digestion of milk is slow, so the contents of the stomach need to be fully emptied before the next feed. For hand-reared animals we recommend to feed at least 2 days apart. This time frame may be further extended as the animal gets older and well-established. Note that the Wombaroo Feeding guidelines give average daily feed volumes, so multiply this by the number of days between each feed.
If the young is showing signs of dehydration (eg during hot weather), give extra drinks of water between feeds. Echidnas dehydrate rapidly if not maintained under optimum husbandry conditions. In particular, carers often keep echidnas at too high a temperature, which can cause dehydration. It is important to provide housing where temperatures do not exceed 30ºC. Fresh drinking water should always be available once animals become mobile. Consult your veterinarian or specialist wildlife carer for further information about husbandry and feeding of young echidnas.

Key Features:
- Specifically formulated to match the composition of flying fox milk
- High protein to energy ratio for lean muscle growth.
- Calcium for bones.
- Stabilised Vitamin C, for proper growth of skin & joints.
Feeding Guidelines:
Flying fox pups are born nearly fully-furred and with eyes open. Keep pups in a clean, draught-free environment at about 30°C.

Commence feeding Wombaroo Flying Fox Milk Replacer after the initial feeds of colostrum.
Making up Milk:
To make 100mL of milk: Mix 14g of powder (2 scoops) with 90ml of warm water.
To make 1 litre of milk: Mix 140g of powder with 900ml of warm water.
Add about half of the water to the powder first and mix to a paste. Then add the remaining water and mix thoroughly. Pre-boil the water to ensure that it is sterilised. If the water is too hot it can cause the milk to curdle. If it is too cold then it will be difficult to disperse the powder. Wombaroo contains elevated protein levels, so the milk needs to be well mixed to prevent it from separating out. An electric whisk can be used for mixing. Milk can be stored in the fridge for a day or can be frozen for up to two weeks. It is useful to make up milk in larger quantities and store it frozen in small portions (eg ice cube trays), so that the required daily feed volumes can be easily thawed out. Once thawed out, discard any unused milk, and wash feeding utensils thoroughly.
Feeding:
Warm milk to about 35°C. Feed from either a bottle and teat or a 10mL syringe with teat pulled over the end. A Wombaroo F Teat is recommended, as this replicates the natural shape of a flying fox nipple. Feed 6 times per day for the first week, 5 times per day for week 2, reducing this to 4 times per day by week 3. Stimulate pups to defecate and urinate after each feed. To avoid dehydration during periods of hot weather provide drinks of pre-boiled water between feeds. Always offer drinking water once pups become mobile. Consult your veterinarian or specialist wildlife carer for particular advice about caring for flying fox pups.
