When they say it looks like 5 or more I recruit extra hands-on help to clean them up. get them breathing, and keep me breathing. My vet is a very smart man and I will discuss this with him at some point.
See if he will keep score on c-sections he does, to see what percentages he gets with first hand experience, as it correlates to published data......majority of males are from the right horn, majority of females are from the left horn. My vet is going to do this in her practice, for 2015! Evidenced based outcomes!
