I put my pregnant Moms on a high quality puppy food for the added protein and calcium. About two weeks before whelping I start giving about a heaping teaspoon of cottage cheese mixed in the dry three times a day. I never give calcium supplements and if I feed extra things it's boiled chicken, but the majority of what they consume should be the puppy food so they will get all the nutrients they require. I think a whole egg every day is too much - not that egg is bad, but since she is so little that is too large of a percentage of her total dietary intake.
