| It would depend upon the weight of the parents but in m experience it's usually between 4 and 6 oz. Course all my babies are born fat!

| Mine usually weigh between 3 1/2 - 4 1/2 oz but I had a little porker weigh 5 1/4 last litter. I think I also try to supplement and I think I may be overfeeding them because I think they may starve or something. I feed them Esbilac and let them nurse, is that good or should I just let them eat on their own if they seem to be feeding ok? This is only my second litter so I am not real knowledgable as some are on here. |
