i have a heating pad under all of them so i hope that is keeping them warm enough i have a reptile hot light i can turn on them to keep them even warmer if you think i should
the heating pad is great, keep it on, ask the vet to give her an oxytocin shot, just to make sure she is done and help with milk production. what I do with the runts is I take the other babies and put them in a warm basket and let the tiny one feed by herself, that way she has enogh and then let the other feed.
best of luck..
hugs
