Day three
Update on the little boy. The little boy was smaller than the girls when he was born, but wasn't gaining weight and he was severely dehydrated when I checked him this afternoon. I rushed him and mom to the vet, so he could have subQ fluids administered and also the vet tube fed him. He perked up and has been doing better. His sisters are twice his size, and was being pushed aside so he couldn't eat. So now he has his own box, own heating pad, and needs to be tube fed every 2 hours. Sweet little guy, he is so small! In the picture he is in my daughters hands, so you know how small he is!! He only weighs .5oz! It will be a long night, but I will do anything for my babies!

Good luck with the little ones! I still remember all too well how much work the little pit bull pups were to feed throughout the night, so hopefully your little guy will start growing soon!
