Re: [AlpacaTalk] 6.8 lb cria 4 days past due Help!
I might make a little tent of aluminum foil to reflect his body heat and the
heating pad back on him if it is hard to keep his temp up
careful with the Karo. I just overdid it myself and gave my cria diarhea. Dr
Ruthanne suggested stopping the karo after the first poop. I am feeding my
wall baby a mix of whole milk and whipping cream for caloric boost.Since she
had a difficult delivery I tubed her the first 24 hours to be sure I got the
colostrum in. If your boy is getting weak have your vet teach you how to
tube him if you dont know how.
