Saturday 25th January 2014 – Weigh in and video

When you watch the video, the big ball is in the pen for the first time and is causing some interest. The bit at the end is quite funny when, I think it is Casanova, discovers it. You can see it here http://youtu.be/3unZZIBrgPQ

Yesterday’s feeding has done them all good. Not all huge gains but they did all gain ok. The heaviest is still Chekov at 2560g, a gain of 120g. Cinderella is not far behind at 2540g, a gain of 130g. Cracker is keeping up at 2480g, a gain of 120g. Casanova and Cosette are both 2370g having added 110g in the case of Casanova and an amazing 190g on the part of Cosette. She seemed really hungry yesterday which is great as she has had lower gains recently. Little Cuddles did not add so much but she gained 50g to reach 1950g. My Mistress is going to keep a careful eye on her today to make sure she has plenty of time eating. With the exception of Cuddles they are all in the range of last year’s litter at this stage. Cuddles is better judged against our first litter and is still 3 days ahead of where Aristotle was. In fact she is ahead of all except Rafa and Amigo and she weighed less at birth than the others except Aristotle.
