AwwwwwwwwwRIGHT!!!!!
The mama with the fewer babies turned her nose up at the scrambled eggs and when I made the rice in chicken broth she turned her nose up at it too. BUT!! when I mixed the rice with baby food chicken she gobbled it down. I didn't make too much cause I didnt' want her to waste it but it's probably a good thing cause maybe her stomach is a little shrunk now. I will offer her some more in a couple of hours.
The other mama, with 6 babies, would eat the scrambled eggs so I mixed them with rice and she gobbled them down. She tried to avoid the rice but couldn't. LOL Then I put the rest of the eggs and more rice in with some canned liver dog food. I haven't gone back to see if she ate any more yet.
I put some vitamin drops in both their waters. Maybe now we will see some action. I don't have any chicken right now but the fried. We will go get some in just a little bit. Most of the time I leave dry food down and sometimes mix cottage cheese and sometimes canned dog food in for a treat. This is the very first time my girls have refused canned food. It is most odd.
The puppy that won't eat anything but chicken is only a pound and a half at 16 1/2 weeks. She keeps having low blood sugar seizures. We feed her what we can get her to eat and that is 99% chicken. Now that her grandmother gobbled down the rice and babyfood chicken, I will try mixing a little rice with her food. She did turn her nose up at the rice cooked in chicken broth but maybe if it is a fresh chicken she will eat the rice better.
THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH FOR HELPING!!!!! If you have more suggestions, please keep posting them. I will check back and see if anything new has been posted and to let everyone know how the mama's and babies are doing. Sylvia |
