Winnie's pups

[woodsie]

Winnie was a real champ again and had beautiful puppies yesterday. She of course had to move out of the nice nest I had built and headed into the straw half way through whelping but she moved them all carefully and has them all positioned nicely now. 8 is perfect because they all have a spot at the milk bar and they all seem to be about even in size, no runts. They are all white again, well some have grey ears but they all lighten to white shortly...time to break out the colored velcro collars so I can tell them apart.

She is still kind of protective of them so I haven't messed with her and checked the sexes yet. Should be able to get a sex count this afternoon. I already have 5 homes lined up for these ones, apparently spring is a better time for people to be in the mark

argh....got one that got cold yesterday, got her back up and nursing with warm beanbags, house time, bottle and lots of prayers....this morning two of the girls, the one from before plus another girl are lethargic. So back in the house and praying they will come around. Its so awful no knowing if they will make it. Any other tricks to help the weaker pups?
