Thats what I was wondering about, the poop. If the momma is doing her job there should be no poop unless they have runny or really soft stools. At that age the poop should be firm. If their poop is not firm you might want to go ahead have the stool checked in case they are having a coccidia outbreak. Look at the bottoms of all the pups, the bottoms should all look clean and dry, or they look wet or icky then you definitely need to get them checked. It is at this age that coccidia can show up and they would need albon.
