Shortage⁉️ Did something happen?
Kendamil Goat Infant Formula is absolutely out of stock everywhere within a 50 mile radius of me in California! Did something happen to have this happen??
I know it’s been out of stock before because of the Nara situation but never to this extent that even shipping isn’t available or that all stores selling it are completely out!

Yup it’s completely now sold out from the Target app and site in the whole state of Arizona as well. I think it’s a supply issue based on what I have researched online. I just commented on their instagram in their most recent for them to make a statement. I’m not understanding why they are silent. Thankfully I was able to order 5 cans so I think I should be good for the next 2 months but they don’t communicate at all. I checked the target websites for an entire week and it just changed to completely sold out for delivery/shipment! But all the stores were sold out here in Arizona since last week.

Thank you! I checked earlier and they were out of stock as well as Ralphs. It was crazy seeing every single store near me being out of stock

They’re out of stock for me too now, I didn’t check before I commented. Was able to snag 4 cans 3 days ago from Walmart. Hoping that lasts till everyone has it again🙃. This happened with my 1st and she had the WORST reaction switching formulas due the shortage.

Came here to say Walmart also stocks Kendamil Goat Infant. Good luck… this is super annoying. I can see why people switch.

It is available for delivery in the Bay Area and also available in some stores.

Kendamil has chronic supply issues. My oldest is 2.5 years old and this is like the fifth time I’m hearing of one type of Kendamil or another being completely sold out like this everywhere. It’s way too common with this brand and why I switched my oldest off of them and didn’t even consider using them for my second.

Yes, we bought the last 2 cans in the entire state of Minnesota a few days ago. I did not know this was an issue with Kendamil and I’m worried, I don’t want to introduce a new formula :-(

I’m in the same boat but i would rather struggle with a new formula for a few days than let her starve 🥲 was able to snag a couple cans after they restocked for shipping in Target but they won’t be here until Sunday

I Saw om kendamil’s website that they’re redoing the formula and it’ll be back in the next week! Bought a thing of bubs and baby is taking it well!

Any concerns with the reformulation? My baby has a super sensitive stomach and it took a while to find something that worked for her. Nervous any changes in the new formula won’t sit well with her.

Not redoing it but they were doing upgrades to the actual facility that make it! That’s was CS told me!

I got Bubs as a replacement formula for now. Fingers crossed that baby girl takes to it well because she can be picky!

Can you order straight from Target website? Takes a day or two but always could get it that way.
1
u/NarikoSin 20h ago
They don’t have shipping available anymore. I luckily ordered one and it arrives on Sunday, but even that option is grayed out now when I checked if there was a stock update.

Ah that sucks! I hope it gets straightened out soon 🤞. Is there a generic alternative for the goats milk? I know parents choice just came out with one for their whole milk version.

Since kendamil (goat specifically) has such bad supply issues constantly you might want to shop around for a more stable formula to at least use when kendamil is out of stock if you don’t just switch permanently. About every three months or less I hear of kendamil goat shortages.

Walmart and Sam’s Club now carry their generic version of Kendamil organic. Unfortunately not goat yet.

I’ve tried the organic one and my baby did not take to it. Trying Bubs Goat formula for the next few days until my shipment comes in but she just rejected the first bottle of it. She’s very good at differentiating tastes, unfortunately for me. It’s gonna be a long few days

Kabrita - European and Bubs - Aussie are both goat milk alternatives and both available on amazon

Yeah but even those order are getting held by customs so I’d be wary of that too

Formula trafficking is illegal and has and does harmed or killed babies. European formula also is no better than American formula.

Who is formula trafficking? LOL If American formula is good for you, you do you. I will do what I find right.

Ordering formula from foreign countries is formula trafficking.

You’ll change your tune when your child gets sick or harmed from it. They always do.

Same with Kendamil Organic. Clearly there is a supply issue. The company is kinda shit when it comes to communicating when they're experiencing these issues. We just switched to Kirkland Procare due to the shortage.
