One thing I think is really important, even though it's a lot more work, is to feed them for at least the first month on the bottle, and not break them to a bucket till they're older. That saliva/slobber they make when they're sucking the bottle is really important for their digestion and health imo. They'll drink it fine out of a bucket at 3 days, but then they get tummy aches and you often don't know it till it's too late. jmho.
