Hi, It's handy to have an xray for a count. Especially if you're inexperienced and this is your bitch's first litter. The count is an estimate and could be wrong by one (the vets usually say this) but for the most part you can know what to expect. It also helps with the pups sizes, being sure they are not too big to pass through. After 45 days is recommended for an xray, but if you want to see better I'd recommend 55 days. Good luck,
Susan
