Has she whelped yet? Hoping everything is going well for momma, babies, and you. After she has the babies, you will do well to not let her eat all the afterbirth...just let he have one or two, or she will vomit it all up. Plus it usually gives them diarrhea. There are recipes on here for a lactating mommas pudding to give your momma after she has her pups. She wont feel like eating much so you have to make every bite she takes, count as much as possible!
I couldnt give any ideas on temps....I dont often use temps to determine when momma is going to whelp, simply because I have several females that have never dropped their temps at all....While I put my faith in other behaviors that indicate they are getting close to whelping, I do take temps twice a day starting a week before she is due......although I also have a female that does NOTHING by the book, and all of a sudden, I hear soft whimpering and THAT is my indication that she has started having babies! |
