hi, thaks again for all the replys!
they are all doing well- they had lost a few grams on their 24hr weigh-in, but gained more today... all 10 have had their vet-check and have a clear bill of health! so yay!
callie is getting loads of extra (puppy) food, and is getting chicken, liver etc as well as some lactol... i've also been getting the pups used to the lactol Just incase (touch wood) they need to be supplimented as they get bigger. i'm not overly keen on their vet though; she said that the mother only needs the normal intake of food if on puppy and a bit more if on adult. i dont know a lot about rotties, but i know by looking at her that she needs more than that to support her and 9 pups!
i think i've included some pictures; these were taken literally minutes after number 9 (who i'm holding!) was born and colour coded! i'd soooo keep her if i could! i'll have better pictures by this time tomorrow though!
