so... We lost 2 white babies sometime on Wednesday. The 2 smallest ones. We knew the runt was a long shot. When I checked them yesterday evening one black one was very skinny so I brought him inside and got a couple ccs of formula in him to hopefully get him through the day until Lovie fed the babies again and it worked. When I checked him this morning he is a big round belly. This one is the smallest one still alive so he is obviously going to be pushed out by the much larger siblings so I will try to keep an extra eye on him to be sure he is getting a full belly each morning. So we have 8 babies. Rosie is due soon too. hopefully she can do the mommy thing this time.
On another note Christmas has attitude! When I try to bet her she makes a new sound and tries to peck me! She even was sticking her head through the fence to peck me! Shane thinks she is a male. In fact he thinks we have 2 males, they better watch their behavior because one will be dinner! Really hoped to be lucky and end up with 2 girls and a boy, I just hope the 3rd one is a girl.
