Thanks you for explaining that. Just from what you had previously posted it looked like you were just taking pictures and letting Shy do all the work. I just did not want others that are not familiar with whelping to think that it was okay to just watch. So many things can go wrong.

I am glad she is on a good food. You just need to make sure she eats about 4 times a day. If she ate all 4 afterbirth then that will effect her appetite for awhile.
