Hi Shibby glad to hear you are all doing so well, regarding Bonnie leaving the babies I would let her decide give her the chance to go out and and have a break then back when she pleases ..she won't leave them for long

So glad everything is going well.

If she wants to have abreak let her, after the first couple of days my Tam1 only stayed with the pups to feed them and slept with them during the night, other than that she would sit next to me or lie under the table and get some kip.

Your doing a fab job, keep it up

well it is a big litter and parents are not big so good question, you know they have all gained so dont worry about the figure its just a guide to how well they are gaining each weigh in.
just record the weight etc for each pup then watch them grow.
she will leave them for a break but she will go back when they cry.

Shibby I would just take their weight today and so long as they are putting on weight by the next time you weight them you should be fine.

My stafford pups were putting on roughly 1lb a week. The dog pup was 1lb at birth and by 5weeks old he was just under the 5lb mark, I'm not sure about other breeds tho.

I'm sure someone will be along to let you know
