[AlpacaTalk] Re: 6.8 lb cria 4 days past due Help!



I took my baby to my vet first thing after he arrived. My vet could
only tell me to put him on a heating pad and feed him goats milk, but
not to have any hope for him to live, and she said good luck. That is
when I came here to the people that I know from experience can really
help me with their experience. Thank you everybody for all of the
information you have given me. I have my boy in a playpen on a
heating pad feeding him cow closotrum with a little yogurt in it. I
take him to visit with mom every couple of hours and to milk her. I
am getting worried he does not seem to want to eat as much as before.
I am hoping it is only because he is tired. He is sleeping good now.
He might not turn out to be an award winning sire, but he already has
my heart. I was suprised that he is a fawn color because both parents
are white. Pray for us. Thank you all.
