[AlpacaTalk] Re: 6.8 lb cria 4 days past due Help!
Heather, thanks for the info. I went to my feed store today and
bought nutri-drench and a prichard lamb nipple. They both worked
miracles. After the drench my guy took 4 ozs. of cow colostrum and
urinated and defecated. I also went out this morning to find my other
girl delivering. She delivered a healthy baby girl. Thank all of you
for your help and support my boy is doing good so fair and thank God
most of all.
Everyone have a blessed day.
Thanks again,
Wendy Cruz
