My asf little ones are dying---don't know why. I thought it might be the bedding. I did have it kind of deep---thinking they may be eating it as it does get in their food, or maybe they are inhaling something from it. It's what they use at Petsmart. Now, I have them on a flannel baby blanket that I change out every two or 3 days. I clean up the pooh every morn. I do give them fruit and veggies---no citrus. Yesterday one died. Then this morning I found another. I do not see them drink from water bottle, so I put a little lid with water in their bin(plus water bottle). About 4or 5 has died so far.
They used to be happy little things playing on their wheels right after weaning.
Note: the mother did die a few days after giving birth to another litter. These pups were separated at that time(will not be letting mothers give birth so soon afterwards as it does seem inhumane). I tried to save those babies by giving kitten replacer milk by way of an artist brush( a you -tube demonstration).That was a disaster--not one lived.
and I wore myself out.
Anybody know what might be going on? All the little ones are away from the adults which are eating the same food.
