went to work this morning no babies, came back no babies, went out to the farm to take care of chickens came back in saw a tail under one of my black velvet! turns out that it was a breech birth going on and she couldnt push him all the way out!! so i jumped in and helped her along. X4 was a black velvet male weighing in at 80 grams!!!!!!!(holy cow). did a mommy check and felt another baby that was still moving around so i left mom alone to handle the second birth but kept in eye on her.

she had X5 a few minutes before i had to go back into work and i thought he was going to turn out to be another black velvet but surprise(!) a standard male weighing in at 54 grams. i am thinking about naming him Jasper, after the earl of pembroke. mom and baby are doing fine.

Good thing you were there to help. That's a huge baby! The standard is a real cute one so I'm glad you were able to help out. :)
 
Sorry to hear that X4 didn't make it even though you were there to help, but very glad to hear X5 and mom are doing well. Congratulations!
