Prince Line Litter
04.08.2010
At 2 am Wombat delivered her first pup, the whelping went on at a rate of 1 pup an hour until 4.35 pm at which point we had 14 fat healthy lusty pups. 8 males and 6 females. Sadly Wombat sat on one boy pup on day 4 and he did not make it.
These pups are starting life in the dining room here along with the rest of my pack. They will be outside at about 2 weeks of age as much as fine weather will allow along with the adult dogs. Wombat is the perfect mother and to my surprise and the vets surprise she is feeding all her pups on her own (she is eating like a small horse to do it but thats better than bottle feeding them). They have all gained impressive amounts of weight so far. I shall update this page with new still photo's as I can. The pups also have their own live stream camera that is on twice a day for a few hours early in the morning and again in the afternoon. The colour markings on the pups is food colour and is not a bad way of identifying them.
