Good morning and Happy July 4th to all my friends in the USA!
AMPS 113 shooting 1.25u

I'm having problems getting Boomer to eat; he just doesn't seem hungry most of the time. Last night I happened to wake up before his +6 auto feeder turned, I heard it turn, and he continued to lay in his bed. I picked him up, brought him to the kitchen, he sniffed his Fowl Ball and turned away. I finally fork-fed him a bite and that got him eating and he ate most of it. This morning I discovered he didn't eat any of his +9. This has just happened since he puked up his breakfast on July 1. IDK.....maybe it is the antibiotic although it didn't affect his appy in the past. Maybe he just needs less food since he's been hanging out in good numbers the last couple of days. Maybe his teeth are bothering him (dental on Friday).

Allen, like usual, ate all of his double helping of chicken pate and about half of the single serving of turkey pate.

The twins session I did yesterday was a success! It wasn't easy....a few times my plan of action was changed by a baby who decided to have a poop and of course woke up screaming when mom/dad changed him! The newborns session plus the family photos they wanted took 4.5 hours which is about what I was expecting. I'm tired today! My body aches lol.
 
Just as I was posting the above, Boomer had a poop which was very close to a pudding poop. So perhaps it is the antibiotics after all. He did eat all of his breffis though. I gave him a smaller breffis, about 3/4 of what he usually gets, hoping that he will be hungry and eat his +3 on his own.
 
Today's photo!

It sounds like the AB is bothering him. Do you have any probiotics to give him? I hope he continues to eat for you today. Sending prayers.

Great photo of the ducks.
 
Wow. Your photo session sounds exhausting. I am happy it went well!

Poor Boomer. Boomer, I am sorry your tummy doesn't feel well. Please keep eating even if it is a bit smaller amounts of food.
 
Even if an AB has been OK with them in the past, it can bother them in the future - especially when they've been on it a while. The timing seems like it is probably/hopefully the AB with Boomer. Pepcid can help a little, but it's for tummy acid rather than full-on nausea. I would call the vetty and ask for cerenia and/or ondansetron for him to have while he's on the AB. Feel better, Boomer!!
 
+3 94 :D
I gave him slightly less breakfast this morning at t/f/s and he's been waiting for his +3 for about 15 minutes. Although I had to stir it for him, he is eating it now (fowl ball).
 
Great pictures! ...and I don't know how you have he patience for all of these sessions with screaming babies. I know I wouldn't.

I am sorry that Boomer is still feeling a bit crummy, but it sure sounds like the AB is bothering him this time around. I hope he won't have to be on it for too long.
 
Nice cycle Boomer! Judy, Bubba isn't in the CPC anymore and I am contributing it to the heat . I have to add a few pieces of YA dry on top of his raw food almost every meal now :eek:

Precious photos of the twins!
 
Boomer has been eating fine today so perhaps his tummy was a bit upset yesterday. He's been eating his chicken pate and fowl ball all day!
