anytime now...

the worst part about breeding is the wait

Anytime now my girl is going to whelp.. she's just making me wait

A pain in the you know what. Nothing seems to be wrong..but it makes me a worry wort wondering

Her temps dropped , she wont eat and forget chewing on her cow hoof..usually she cant put it down.

 

Good luck Rocksteady...

Seems like every litter is important to me...just had 2 litters this last year...
I am always watching.
Seems mine like to eat Pizza when close to whelp...LOL
I hate to cook at the last minute.
Is your girl in the house?
Best of luck with the new babies.

 

i here you on the worry wort thing...my codie had her pups jan 6th....and it was her 66th day...i was so scared for her i hardly slept..and when i did...i would hear her and wake up..grrr is how i felt...then at 11:20pm 1-6-2005 my first solid white was born then my second solid white was born 5 mins later she proceeded to have another solid white then she had one brown with a white chest and 3 others that are brown white and black...and they all have red noses...wooohoooo...i am a happy grandma!!!

Is there anyone that can help out SHERI?????

 

Do you have a vet?? Make sure you keep his /her number handy just in case

Sounds like she's ready! They will stop eating, get restless ..all the signs

Best thing to do is leave her alone, just watch. If you notice her having trouble or straining , call your vet. When the pups come out, make sure she tears their sack, cuts their cord, licks them dry. You can check the pup when she's done, pick up in towel and chack for clef palates, male/ female and place back with her

she could go really fast..or she could have a couple then nothing for an hour or so.

I really dont know what else to say. there are so many things that could go wrong... but generally a healthy, of age female will have no problems. make sure she;s nursing and taking care of them otherwise you;ll have to feed them! Its very important they get that first milk.

All females are different when it comes to whelping. Some dont mind company. others, like mine, prefer me to leave the room

 

congrats love to see them
