New litter on the way

[Claude]

Thanks to all for the kind words ........now im going to go off subject and ask for prayers for my great grandson 4 months old has been in the hospital more than at home he stops breathing last time he had to be air lifted cause the ambulance people had trouble keeping him breathing thanks ahead of time

And I am praying for your great grandson as well I'm sorry to hear that hopefully the docs can figure everything out and fix it. I have 3 kids off my own and am raising 7 total with one more on the way and I don't know what I would do if something like that happened to any of them. Probably would lose my mind.

Well so far so good only one day old but all seem to have round bellies and are wiggling all over the nest. Hopefully it will stay that way but time will tell.

Well here's a picture of the 10 little ones born Friday. I think the doe that had them is gonna be my best producer. So far in 2 litters she's had 18 total where as my other doe has only had 9 in 2 litters her first one had 5 that didn't survive and 4 for her second that are about 3 weeks old right now.

18 kits in 2 litters!!! Thats pretty good.

Well so far so good the 10 are a week old and all are doing good. I was half expecting for her to lose one or 2 with as many as she had but all are alive and kicking.

18, that's a good deal! My last litters had 17 between 3 does! Sounds like you got a real good doe there.

Thanks I think so she's done real good with her litters and she's protective of them too with her first litter when I was checking them she did bite me once. But now she's learned I'm not gonna hurt them so she's calmed down but she does watch everything I do and when I'm done she shoves her head in the box and checks them out. If I take the box out of the cage to check them she runs back and forth looking for them until I put the box back.
