Hes adorable!!

 

[Glenmar]

They are getting big.

 

[arabianequine]

They are a lot of work at each feeding. I am doing x2 per day right now and lining the potty area is a chore too. I usually do it all at the same time am and pm. I am tired and sweaty during but been about 80 last few days.

I have to wash each ones feet and face when done....sometimes their belly/chest too

 

[arabianequine]

They started with about 2 cups of milk per feeding with 1/3 cup of food mixed in. Now they take in about 3 cups milk per feeding with same amount of food in it. I am doing this x2 per day. I may start to give some plain milk to a couple times a day.

Are they still nursing too? Little porkers..

 

[arabianequine]

Yes a little maybe 1-2 times in a 24 hour period....she is stingy lol.

See, I would be having my b.itch in the box, to lie down and nurse the puppies 4 to 5 times per day, whether it was her idea or not. This is not normal. Puppies should nurse at least until 21 days. Be careful she is not incubating some sort of infection that might be causing this.

Puppies this age should have all they care to consume at LEAST 4X per day. Part of the reason why you have to clean so much is these puppies are much younger than normally they begin to eat. Most puppies cannot manage to eat from a pan until very close to 3 weeks old. I would want my b.itch in for an abdominal palpation and once over to make sure nothing is brewing.

X10 this to me is NOT NORMAL AT ALL!!!!! I would be sitting at the vets office when they open in the morning.....

For peace of mind I would have blood work done to see what her white count is at the very least.... And a complete post pregnancy check up done.
