Crabcake is a goodlooking little fellow! Castor is now following him on instagram and would love Crabcake to follow him too!
 
Wow thanks for all of the love for the name! 4-5 days to go, my amazon delivery person really hates me because I have ordered about 45 boxes in the last few weeks.
 
I just uploaded this image to instagram, I think it is my favorite one of him so far. He has two sisters as well but his breeder says that she can't get enough of his loving personality

Welcome to the forum and why did Crabcake have a rough 3 weeks? Great original name by the way
 
This was my breeders description:

He got sick at 3 wks 1 day old. Momma was not making enough milk to support the litter and we were still having to just let her have them to nurse to keep what milk she had. We started making a slurry for them which we've done for yrs to help fill them up at night or during day if they are not able to go between bottles Within 2 days of starting the slurry 3 of the 4 became very sick it wasnt til 2nd day that i realized their prob was coming from constipation. Vet seemed to think maybe they had developed gastroenteritis from the food change or had a virus. Once I realized they had stopped pooping even with tube feeding and they weren't improving evening getting their scheduled milk meals, i contacted both my vets again explaining symptoms. The fertility vet suggested pure mineral oil tubed and multiple warm water and mineral oil enemas until something moved and if nothing they were to return to him the following day. Once their bowels moved they begin to show improvement. By that time we had stopped the slurries and had went back to just the homoginized goat milk and egg yoke and the K9 gold we use for a booster when supplementing. By the time they were pooping normal again they were still weakened from the experience and at times didn't want to eat. They had lost weight because this all took place over the span of nearly a week before problem was completely solved and improvements noted.

We lost his brother which was super sad, thankfully his sister and him have returned to great health.

Oh just wait.......you will have a love hate relationship with the UPS person FOR SURE!!!!
 
9 hours to go! Really starting to get those nervous jitters before a big event happens. Very excited and pretty nervous too, really just hope he arrives from his big trip happy and healthy and the other stuff I hope will work itself out. Thanks also to all of the help I was getting on his potty routine, a lot of great ideas, I hope I can use those and get a routine that fits him best.
 
Oh HOW EXCITING!!!!! I hope you find the time when you get him home to post real quick and with photos please!
