    Default Sleeping

    I am taking care of an orphaned baby foxer. Hes 6 weeks old and is my first. He sleeps most of the day and is only active for half an hour or so after feedings. Is that normal? Also what is a good feeding schedule for his age? Hes 140g.

    Actually that's a pretty normal sleeping pattern at his age... won't last.
    He should be fed between 5-7% every 4 hours at least 4 x per day.
    At 140 grams 5% = 7cc, 7% = 9.8cc
    What formula are you feeding and with what are you giving formula?
    Can you post a picture?
