She is not really feeding them every 3-4 hours.. more like every 6, but they are not crying or anything and seem pretty content most of the time. I have one that cries a lot, but if I lightly pet it, or if mama will go to it and lick it (sometimes she wont) it will stop.
You are right, every 5 or 6 hours might be more accurate. My mommas always have free access to their babies so I have never really paid that much attention to how often they go in a nurse them at that age. For the toenails, just use little human nail clippers and clip off the little points on the end of the nails.
