[QUOTE="Extreme Optimist, post: 3618464, member: 1609"] Had set of twins born this morning, One dead, and looked as though it had been dead for a while inside her as there was no hair on it, and the other alive but only weighing about 10kg. I have tubed it with colostrum 3x today with just over a litre each time. With it being so small, I am wary of giving it much more than that. He has lived for approx 14 hours so far and has a good set of lungs on him judging by the way he shouts. He now seems to be maintaining his body temperature and appears to be relatively healthy and strong although he is not standing yet. How long can I carry on tubing him for as he doesn't seem keen to suck yet. I am worried about continually pushing a large stomach tube down his throat. [/QUOTE]
