| That's a great idea. I hope he does better on that. It would be easier for the both of you I think.

| Keep us posted! I've been wanting to homecook for Teddy, but I'm never sure what supplements to add etc. I need to find a good book on the subject. Good Luck with your babies; I'm sure they will do great |

| That's exactly why I started! Kalani brought giardia into our home and after all the meds they were on they developed very sensitive tummies I couldn't stand the diarrhea anymore and decided to cook for them myself.

| Home cooking should pay off for you. I only do it once in a while just because I'm to lazy to do it everyday.

| cooking My only concern is that I see runny stool from Zoey from the chicken and rice...will that go away once I continue on the homecooking or should i be mixing it with her dog food for awhile to ease her into it?

| COMPLETELY normal! her body is cleaning out all the crap from the dog food and is adjusting to the new food... this might take a few days... she might also be a bit more tired that usual which is also normal. when she is used to her new good food she will probably poop less aswell |

| it is part of their body just adjusting.. i read it in the Pitcairn book i was telling you about. Their bodies are cleaning things out and that can take a toll especially when they are so tiny. About two weeks into it Layla was very sleepy for about 3-4 days.. then right back to normal. i would have worried had i not read in the book that it was completely normal. |
