Thank you for sharing. I'm going to leave it. I feel good about it.

But what about the blood vessel still running through the sack? If I cut it wouldn't it bleed?

That's why I didn't do it. I was worried about that happening. Now I feel better about letting nature take its course.

Yes please

I've been told you should tie it off and let it dry up and fall off? I didn't want to do that because I can still see a blood vessel in the sack. I want this baby to live so I'm asking to give it its best chance. Thanks for all u'r advice.

Thank you! They had two water bowls right next to the dog food bowls. They seem fine now. Cuddled up sleeping like two little angles when I know better.. More like two little devils lol! But I love em anyway!

I have two two week old pekins. They had free grange in my kitchen and I forgot to pick up the dogs food. I heard all the noisy so I went to investigate and sure enough there they were eating away. I rounded them up when one baby started flipping over backwards freaking my husband out! We want...

Thank you everyone for all the kind comments.
