So sorry you lost one :(
I agree, you can't cut back too much on their feedings till they are ready.
Best of luck

So sorry you lost one of them, Brady. It is always hard when you have put so much of yourself into it. Mine always let me know when they are weaned, as they won't come to me, nor will they eat if I catch them up, they turn their head away from the syringe.
