At the same time, I don't want to span the # of days they bred from 1/5 to 1/11. That will be a week in difference IF the 5th did count. Please advise as the owner of the male is available if I need to take her to him again this week. which i feel I would need to do tonight or tomorrow at latest. Thanks for anyones advice in advance! |
I am not experienced in chihuahuas and all breeds have thier specific breeding quirks. Than being said, ties are ties if you had 3 successful ties then more than likely your female should be pregnant. I wouldnt think a 4th tie is needed. Sperm lasts up to 72 hours and the "wet stuff" you mentioned is just merely the left overs
