I have been pretty much out-of-commission for the past couple weeks because of a knee injury. My husband literally sent me to bed to heal and he has been taking wonderful care of me. He has also taken over care and feeding of Arrow and the girls. This-morning he said he didn't know if Gertie was feeling all that good, because she hasn't been finishing her food (but Ida just finishes hers' and then Gertie's also). I was immediately concerned because they both usually suck down their food in under a minute, NEVER leaving a morsel. Then we got discussing just what he's been feeding them. I have a little tiny plastic pitcher I use to scoop and measure the girls' food. It holds 2 cups, it's actually intended for pancake batter, I think, but it works great for a scoop. I give the girls each a cup and 1/4 in the morning and a cup each at dinner. I thought I had explained all this to my husband. I made him a list so he wouldn't forget their vitamins or salmon oil, told him all about what I add in the morning and what I add at night. Well, turns out, he didn't pay any attention to the fact that the little pitcher/scoop holds 2 cups. He thought it was 1 cup, so has DOUBLED their food the last couple weeks! OMG!! No wonder they look bigger everytime they're upstairs to visit me!! So we have that all straightened out now, they will no longer being fed double their normal amounts. I'll be back to feeding them here pretty soon. I have been up and around more and more, even started sewing again. Thank goodness we got this figured out before they EXPLODED!!
