I think their weight gain sounds fine. The bed temp might be low. I had read that it should not be below 87 degrees before they reach 11 to 12 days old as they cannot regulate body temp. Maybe that is why their little noses are wet.

I weighed mine every day to make sure they were gaining. I had one that was not, I still worry about him. Mine will be 5 weeks on Sunday. I thought they were gaining almost an ounce a day for the first couple of weeks. It gets better though. Now they will open their eyes and start moving around. My guys just started running around, they are just adorable.

Is this your first litter? Have you posted pics? I'll go see now!
