Good afternoon,
Today I euthanized 1 female in trio breeder cage #15727 (4A) per veterinary recommendation. She was in very poor shape and not doing well. The other female in the cage is doing well; however she does have a lump on dorsal abdomen on her right side. We will continue to watch it at this time.
I also euthanized a female in trio breeder cage #15600 (1B) per veterinary reccomendation. She was also in very poor shape. There was 1 pup from her, that seems to have been claimed by the other mother in the cage, that mother has 2 pups of her own as well. We will continue to monitor the situation. There were 3 other pups, that were deceased.
Lastly, wanted to remind you that there are 2 littlers due to be weaned today.
Thank you,
