Well they were born on day 59, do 4 days early from the first breeding, but you have to remember that puppies are due 63 days from the day the female ovulates, not the day they were fertilized...however we know they were early as they barely had hair on their heads, it was thin on their bodies (almost appeared bluish the first day), and they had no hair below their elbows and knees...when they were 4 days old...they looked full term to me...so my guess is 4 days. All of our other yorkie puppies have opened their eyes when they were 13-15 days old...I am waiting to see when they will open theirs...
They are growing though and every time I look at them I think they own another piece of my heart! I will take new pics of them tomorrow...they will be 2 weeks old!
