New Digs

Check out their new digs in this video. Sorry I tried but its a bit less than smooth but you get the idea of their comfort level. Here are more videos. 

They now have a huge area to explore. They can see out easily and therefore they get conditioned to the activity. as it is warm tomorrow I may take each outside for a look see in our hands. 

When they went to their new area we didn't have any hesitancy. I think Momma Safi was more concerned than they were. She wanted to feed them non stop so she now has a closed gate. It will be open tonight. She will have free access each time they wake up. When pups eat too frequently they do not gain weight. They expel too much energy and mom can't create enough fluid to fill them up. Plus they are burning energy with trying to walk and getting into the exploring mode. Safi has already calmed down. 

When I say feeding too often, she was trying to feed them every half hour or so and guess what they tried but really didn't eat. Now with giving them sleep between they are eating well. 

We still have to move the heat lamp, gather up the cords behind and figure out the best placement for the camera so I can see the whole pen. Dennis thinks it is impossible. I also need to organize the supplies. We will get there. 

Pups are wonderful and they love giving me kisses on my legs, my face, my hands. It's adorable!

Come Saturday or as soon as they are very solid on their legs, we will try them on food and water.
