Holle Organic Goat Formula Stage 2 is a delicious organic goat milk follow-on formula for babies from 6 to 10 months. Use it as part of a mixed diet alongside solids, after breastfeeding, after Holle Goat Stage 1 or PRE, or as a transition from any other follow-on milk.
 

This is the stage where little ones discover food, and the goat milk remains as gentle as ever. The base is whole goat milk with its naturally occurring A2 protein. Lactose leads the recipe, and DHA at 14 mg per 100 ml (3.4 fl oz) supports eyesight, while ALA omega-3 supports the brain and nerve cells. Vitamins C and D support the immune system, and this clean recipe contains no palm oil, added sugar, corn syrup, or soy.
 

This premium follow-on milk is crafted in Germany from biodynamic milk and comes in a 400 g (14.1 oz) box. The label is in German, so we translated the preparation instructions, feeding chart, and ingredient information into English here.
 

This formula is rated 4.9/5 stars by parents in our store. "Love the ingredients, no palm oil, the best my baby can have after breast milk."

What Makes This Formula Special
 

Around 6 months, mealtimes become an adventure: first purees, first finger foods, and a baby who is suddenly busier than ever. Holle Goat Stage 2 is built for exactly this chapter. In addition to lactose, the leading carbohydrate, the recipe includes small amounts of gentle organic energy sources, such as organic maltodextrin and a touch of organic starch, so the feed satisfies a bigger appetite between meals. It also pairs beautifully with the weaning kitchen; our guide to combining solids with EU formula shows how bottles and spoonfuls fit together.
 

The milk itself is what makes Holle special. Whole goat milk, naturally carrying the A2 protein and forming a soft curd in the tummy, is farmed to the triple-certified standard: EU Organic (DE-ÖKO-001) as the legal baseline, the German Bio-Siegel on top, and Demeter, the biodynamic gold standard with strict animal welfare at its heart. Iron steps up a little for the second half of year one; calcium and vitamin D support growing bones, and the DHA is plant-based from algal oil, which keeps this formula vegetarian.
 

One honest note, because goat milk is often sought for allergy reasons: goat milk still contains milk proteins. It is not a treatment for a confirmed or suspected cow's milk protein allergy. Always consult your pediatrician first if allergies are a concern. For everyday sensitive tummies, gas, or fussiness with cow's milk formula, goat milk could be the gentle path you are looking for.
 

Coming from Holle Goat PRE or Holle Organic Goat Formula Stage 1? The step up is seamless, with the same whole goat milk base and the same mild taste. Need a larger quantity or prefer to order less often? Holle Goat Dutch Stage 2 offers the Demeter idea in an 800 g can, usually the better value per gram. From 10 months, Holle Goat Stage 3 continues the range, and all our Stage 2 formulas are gathered in one place.
 

Safety, Quality and Animal Welfare
 

Holle has stood for organic quality for more than 85 years and was the world's first Demeter-certified producer of baby food. Biodynamic farming means the goats are raised to high animal-welfare standards on organic German farms, and every ingredient is strictly controlled from farm to box. This box is even climate-positive, going a step beyond climate-neutral by supporting more climate protection than its production emits.
 

EU baby formula follows strict European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) rules, including required DHA, staged iron by age, and no corn syrup solids. Those rules are a higher bar than FDA formula standards and apply to all EU and UK formulas we carry. Read more in our EU vs US formula guide.
 

Why Parents Trust Holle Goat Stage 2
 

The stories from parents who switched formulas stand out in our reviews. "Within days, his tummy and stool improved! He was less fussy and slept a bit better," one parent wrote after switching from another formula. Another praised how smooth the transition was: "Thankful for the quality of this product and how easily they transition to using it!" A gentle tummy, an easy transition, and clean ingredients are the themes we hear again and again.

Frequently Asked Questions
 

What age is Holle Goat Stage 2 for?
It is a follow-on formula for ages 6 to 10 months, used as part of a mixed diet alongside solid foods. From 10 months, Holle Goat Stage 3 is the next step in the range.
 

What is the difference between Holle Goat Stage 1 and Stage 2?
Stage 1 and PRE are lactose-only starting formulas. Stage 2 keeps lactose in the lead but adds small amounts of gentle organic energy sources, so the feed is a touch more satisfying for a baby who is on the move. Iron steps up a little, and the whole goat milk base and mild taste stay the same.
 

Is this formula suitable for a cow's milk protein allergy?
No. Goat milk still contains milk proteins, so it is not a treatment for a confirmed or suspected cow's milk protein allergy. For allergy concerns, choose a formula under medical guidance; for everyday sensitivity, goat milk is a gentle option.
 

Can I mix it with cereals or solids?
Yes. From 6 months, you can use this follow-on milk in a bottle, on cereals, or stirred into purees, making it a flexible partner during weaning. Prepare it as directed on the feeding chart and use each portion fresh.
 

How long does one box last?
The 400 g (14.1 oz) box makes about 30 bottles of 100 ml (3.4 fl oz), using the included scoop (4.5 g per 30 ml of water). Our formula calculator shows exactly how many boxes you need for your baby's age.
