All my pregnant ladies go on that (PRO HT-42D) and it is available here in the States. I did not do a formal study on it, but breeder friends of mine that initially told me about it, have done compairson studies within their facilities, and they said their litters are larger and healthier using it. I can say my litters used to average 3-4/litter, and they now run 4-5/litter....babies birth weights used to weigh around 1.8oz- 2 oz....now they are closer to 2.2 oz-3 oz....I free feed this, she can have as much to eat as she wants. I have mine on the worming protocol she talked about too...and I pre-medicate my breeding bitches with NeoPar, 1 week before they are bred...then the babies are re-vaccinated with NeoPar at 4 weeks of age. I was not familiar with mixing the Starter Mousse in water like a chocolate shake to get mom to drink water after whelping, but will be doing that with my next litter....I just bred my Hungarian female Karina, and will be expecting babies around Dec.15. |
