Im wondering if it has to do with this wonkey weather? The winds have been 60+mph and very dry. We are set to have rain! Hopefully this will help! I can turn on the baby humidifier too. Didn't see anything that resembles mites (grossss)

It is very dry and flakey. I really figured it was from all the new hair growth. OMG mites?!!! Idk how.....bleh! I havent had to deal with mites since we had our flock of chickens, how the heck would i treat for kits? I will check their fur. Same little white boogers like with chickens?

We dont have freezing temps here, but there are AMAZING posts for the big 55 gallon with the heating lamps.....let me see if i can find the posts..... I do use sweaters! As long as it isnt too tight on dried cord, it is fine. I usually make sure the are in front of their cord until completely...

Look at these guys! <3 Has anyone had a bit of "cradle cap" like with human babies? I noticed the dry skin on day 2 but i just thought since they were just born, and hair growth, but they are officially a week old now...and their heads are rather flakey?

Thank you very much @amyandkids. You are right. The babies always makes the losses so much better!!!!

Thank you so much. This is so awesome! Cannot wait to see little heads poking out of the nest and bouncing around hutch!!!

Yes @amyandkids! We have another thread with their updates ;) http://www.backyardherds.com/threads/help-with-kits-kid-progress.30533/

I am not a LGD expert in the slightest. But i do have pitbulls that i rescue, and have trained and housed MANY orphaned and rescued dogs. Paris behavior is 100% her asserting her dominance and establishing she is herd boss and queen. I do not know her, but if she did not do anything to him aside...

X2 what frustratedearthmother said! Sounds like he was meant for you!!!!! So precious. Congratulations!

Niiiiice! Congratulations!!!! You guys just need to announce your going to go into town for chores and errands, turn on the barn cam, and enjoy! Seems like your girls want to surprise you or have stage fright. Lol!

These guys are just absolutely beautiful if i do say so myself ;) i am so thankful Fluffy came through and has been an AMAZING mama. The kits now lift their heads when i move the fur. They also nuzzle into my hand :D ears are beginning to lift. Day 6!

How exciting! Congratulations!!!!

:weeeCongratulations! LOVE suprises like that!

I vote all of the above!! ;) Yaaaaaay on the movement!

Grrrrreat pic!!!!! I love it! And it has a cute story, stuff for grandkids one day!!!!!

That happened with my gal last year too. She barely looked pregnant and had a stillborn. Wasn't much bigger this year and twins! Hoping the same luck!!!!

If Belle is pregnant and front legs down with rear legs straight, she is adjusting kids. My girls do this to help get them in the birth canal, and i know they are getting closer.

:confused:Twin bucklings?!!!! Ahhhhhhh! I mean, I'll be extremely happy and thankful if they are healthy....but i NEEEEEEED at least 1 doeling! Especially from this pairing! I didn't really want to sell bucks, so i can bogart these genes lol

Thank-you very much SueD. We are hoping to try again with our Torte doe Dulce'. But seeing my gorgeous little buns in with Fluffy definitely makes things better =) and i did learn quite a few things, thanks to the help and information here!

Holy growth spurt! So day 4 they are little more bunny-ish. Definitely can tell the difference between the two now. And hearing their little squeaks are sooooooo cute!!!! The fur is soooo soft too!
