Ye they lap milk and water Maybe they are just been lazy I left the bowl with them hoping they will just eat from it

heres some pics for you guys In the first pic the darker boy on the left is the one that had issues suckling at the time he was around 270 grams now he is around 1kg his bro is about 100 grams heavier then him

Yeah they have a bowl of water and they lap from it Just want them to eat food now . Im sure if they are hungry they have to eat so ill stop hand feeding them

Thats true i dont want to train them to only eat from me by hand

Should i take the mum away from the pups ? Coz she still has some milk and i wsnt them to get hungry and eat when i gove them thier food. I still have to kind off feed them and they are nearly 6 weeks old... i dunno if they just arent hungry or what. Somtimes they start eating on thier own but not much

Hey guys im not sure if im going to breed her again im definitely not going too on her next heat anyways All im doing is just asking so if i do decide too i know the best way to go on about it Btw ive already tested her and the stud and they are clear for all genetic diseases etc

So smaller breeds take much longer to eat on thier own compared to bigger breeds ?

Hey guys i want to do whats best for my girl So whats the best breeding shedule? Would it be breed every 2 heat cycles and have a break on the thrid and repeat? Or 1 on 1 off ? Im not sure and just trying to learn so i do the right thing by my bitch Thanks alot

They dont need the heating pad anymore ? Yeah ill see how i go tonight

Hey guys a new set of questions Pups are 4 weeks old now -Should i leave a bowl on water in with them at all times ? - should i remove the heating pad now ? - im having trouble getting them to eat puppy mush i have to feed it to them from my finger i want them.to get in there and eat it by them selfs same with the water they lick somtimes but not much Thanks

Should i get the mini nipple ? Of the mini and original nipple you think ?

Hey other then me been Sleep deprived things are going well Small one is 509 grams now and big one is 565 grams This comming up money they will be 3 weeks old. And thier eyes are opening up now and i can tell they will be able to walk soon . The mother has milk only in 1 teat she has alot and its really full and lumpy and hard so im squeezing it abit to help her. Im not sure which is giving her the milk the fenugreek or the moxolon tabs im giving her. It is kind of anoyying that she produces milk then doesnt if she didnt at all then ill know exactly how much milk to give the pups but because she has milk somtimes i weight them to have a idea if they have been drinking etc

When you say dont leave new borns for 8 hrs we are talking the first week right ? I read online after 2 weeks you can give them 5 feedings in 24 hrs so thats around every 4/5 hrs . So they can manage a long 6 hr stretch after 2 weeks old ? The older they are the less frequent the meals have to be right ? Would you say at 3 weeks 4 weeks old they can cope with just one 8 hr stretch? Would they start licking milk when they can walk ? Which would be 3.5/ 4 weeks ? Yeah i actually brought one of those bottles but when i tried it with them they didnt take it maybe they will now. So you only use the baby bottles on your pups no syringe/nipples ? I like the syringe because i can load it up to exactly how much i want to feed them. With the bottle if i start feeding them with it ill have to start weighing the bottle in grams before and after they eat so i know how much they drink aye ? Ive noticed if i put barly anything in the bottle say 15mls then i cant really squeeze it and get anything out of it
