    How long after birth before mommy can bathe?

    My Priscilla had a little boy 12 days ago and I'm trying to remember how long I'm supposed to wait before giving her a bath? I've been checking her vulva and she's not swollen like before but she's not 100% back to normal yet either. She only had one kit so I'm thinking 2 weeks should be...

    How long before new mommy can have dust bath?

    Ok! Do you let the kits stay in the cage with her while she's dusting or should I take them out in case they get too curious and try to hop in while she's rolling?

    How long before new mommy can have dust bath?

    My girl Priscilla had hr litter on Tuesday and I'm wondering how long I should wait before letting her take a dust bath? I read that I need to wait at least a week to give her vagina a chance to close so she doesn't get an infection. Is that correct? And what about the kits? They're fine for...

    First-time pregnant chin... Advice?

    really? oh boy that makes me feel better, thank you! i was losing my mind trying to figure out how to give them something so they don't starve overnight. ella (the runt) weighed it at only 26 grams, i'm a little afraid for her. i'm sure i'm not the first one to freak out like this, but it...

    First-time pregnant chin... Advice?

    ok... sorry i guess i'm just paranoid. i'm mainly worried that priscilla isn't producing enough milk for all 3 because at one point they were under there for a long time! i'm going to by some cran juice to stimulate milk production. any recommended brands?

    Wrong yogurt!

    My Priscilla had a litter of 3 today! I'm very excited but am nervous at the same time because the runt is so tiny and her younger brother keeps fighting with her over mommy's teats. It looks like I may have to hand-feed. I ran out to the grocery store but they were closed, so I hit the...
