I wanted to chime in on this thread and give you a bit of hope. Skittles did this with her smallest boy, he was 2 1/4oz at birth, all the other boys weighted in around the 4 oz mark. I don't recall what day after they were born that she started moving him. She would just sometimes not all the times move him to the other area I had set up for her and the pups. She would just take him over there and then go back to the other pups. I thought it was from me over handling him since I weighted him more often than the other boys. I was also supplementing him as he was not nursing like he should...the other boys would knock him off a teat. I don't recall when she stopped moving him away from the others but she did. He is now healthy and living with my sister n law and is 7 month old. He is still the smallest and only weights a lil more than 2 lbs now. But do take your brood to the vet to rule out everything could be nothing...as to this day I'm not sure why Skittles was moving her lil guy away. I'll be thinking of you and please keep us posted. |
