Hello all,
I was given 3 PBP 3 weeks ago. 1 looked a tad more round then the others so I was thinking pregnant but didn't know how far along.
She was seperate in her own pen because she looked pretty far.
Yesterday when we did our check she had 2 dead babies (laying on them) and 1 alive baby. The mother didn't make it through the labor. We found after the fact that she had 1 more HUGE dead smelly piglet that would have never been able to be delivered!
So now I have a 1 day old piglet and have no clue what I am doing.
I bought milk replacement and have tried feeding with a spoon, and I only had a human bottle but it is way to big :/ does anyone have any suggestions or pointers on keeping this piglet alive? My husband named her Penelope.
