Re: [AlpacaTalk] Fetal Heart Tones

 

I just can't believe a crias heart beat could be heard.We see it on ultrasound often.Gestation time is so variable it's hard to say due or over due.You should be able to see the cria move. If the cria is in position you can ussually see it laying along the left side & see it move.You can gentle bump the cria by pushing back & forth against the belly.The cria will kick or move back against you.They come when they are ready,no matter ifvthey seem to be showing allthe signs for a week or no signs at all.It is a waiting game.I am lucky & can check often during birting season so I see almost all being born.I check every 2 hours.. Good luck let us know when she has it. Tina Travis Hunt  Elkhorn Alpacas  Warrenton,MO 63383     #636-459-8930

Has anybody had any luck obtaining fetal heart tones with a stethoscope? If so, at what gestational age? I'm guessing it's difficult with the awesome staple and density all this cold is providing! It's killin' me waitin' for Sebastian's cria.
