Hey everyone,

Here's a final tally on my Anery DH Snow litter that dropped over the weekend: 4 slugs, 6 Poss. DH Snows, 12 Anerys Poss. DH Snows, and (last but definitely not least) 1 Premie Snow. All the normals and Anerys are doing fine, as can be seen in the pic below. I'm a bit surprised, but very happy, with the ratio. I got a whole lot of Anerys which is great for me because now I just might holdback more than I orginally anticipated.

As for the little snow. The little guy started moving around today, but he/she still has a huge belly and has some yolk "hanging" externally. Below is a poor quality pic to show you what I mean. I'm happy that it started moving around today, but am still very concerned about all that yolk and that big ol' belly. I've been keeping him moist with water sprays and the heat pad remains on underneath the cage. Is there anything else I should be doing? Is it ok for me to move it separate shoebox or should I let him/her alone until the yolk breaks off on its own? I've had several litters before, but haven't had to deal with a premie like this, especially one as important to me as this little snow. Please, any advice from you all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to you all.

Jay
