Kim, you must be familiar with Lorraine Hayes of Pastoral. I remember once she wrote an article about getting her moms to eat after welping. She had one that would not eat a thing and she went to Kenny Kings got their chicken tore the skin off and any of her females that would not eat would eat that chicken. Not the best diet in the world but if they eat it's such a relief and they need the food more at that time than any other and little Hannah and all she has gone through surely needs to eat on her own again. She also did another thing I never heard of in my life and that is get them squirt whip cream if they were nursing. I would not mention this if Lorraine were not so well thought of in the breed. For what it may be worth!! 4.5 ozs for miracle baby woo hoo
