I think you make out better w/ shelves from Home Depot/Lowes and PVC for  
pig rails than Durawhelp:)
 
Lots of things to have in a whelping kit but I would not be w/o Nursemate  
ASAP, ora-cal plus and pit just in case I needed it. 
 
I use (only) sterilon as bedding. 
 
Bene-bac.
 
Pediatric amoxy drops (just in case).
 
I always have sterile french tubes for tubing here if need be.
 
You'll decide what heat source is best for you:)  I put thermometers  all 
around the box and pen enclosure. 
 
Baby monitor that looks like a TV (Baby's-R-Us)
 
Just found a "bridge" between my normal weaning formula.  I used to go  
directly from 2nd Step (Esbilac) to ground soaked kibble, Learned about Royal  
Canin "mother's mousse"  then puppy starter, so now it's  added before  the 
puppy kibble.  Wonderful stuff!
 
Nemex II (starting at 2 weeks).
 
I'm sure others will add....
 
Good luck w/ the babies Sam!

Just got  news that I am expecting a litter of 8+ in December and I just 
don't 
think  my old Durawhelp box can withstand another litter. Can anyone 
recommend a  
good whelping box?
Also, can people let me know where I can find a  great list of whelping 
supplies 
to have on hand when whelping a  litter.

Thanks

Sam
