Congratulations on your boys..they sure are tiny. Size really depends on the size of Mom and Dad. I am talking about a Mom about 6 lbs and Dad about 5 1/2 and our 7 puppies were from 4.1 oz. to 6.2 oz. Lex had 2.1 pounds of babies in her...but that was a lot!!! I weigh my babies every evening at about the same time and keep a running record to make sure they are all gaining. I also give Lexie whelping pudding and snacks (cottage cheese, yogurt) throughout the day so she gets the extra energy to feed her gang. Good Luck to you and your little ones. Keep us posted on how they are doing and if you have any more questions, just ask.....we are all here for you.
