As I put in the title, his numbers have dropped down to 57. We gave him a little regular pate. Is the standard procedure to check him every half hour when he drops this low? What is the lowest number we can shoot at?

UPDATE: His numbers are rising, we're out of the danger zone. Didn't give him any gravy or anything, he got up to 78 and 102 on his own.

 

Looks like you're having some wonderful runs in the lagoon (those green numbers)...

You did the right thing at 57 by feeding him and testing again shortly thereafter. Beautiful surfing! Try not to be too alarmed when he does just exactly what we're all hoping to see every day!

Great catch!

 

Thanks for the reply. We were shocked he was that low so late in his cycle. After testing every half hour to 7:00 p.m. he made it 138, so we continued on as normal with his shot. I'll be keeping an eye on his numbers into the morning. Thank you so much for replying.

 

I know it's nerve wracking early on seeing those greens...but take a breath and know that he's looking good! I remember the first time I saw a green number, I almost had a heart attack!!! The more you have, the easier it'll get...and then you'll feel disappointed when you see a pink or even higher number. Look around at some other SS's - take a look at our beautiful boy @Sarah and Blaze! He's a poster child for low numbers and he's on the home stretch. Then you'll feel a little easier when you see those lovely greens on Apple's SS. Just keep working that juice Apple!

Have a great evening Caren!

 

I would get some tests in during the pm cycle today say at +2 to start with, to see he isn’t dropping early.

 

Great job handling Apple's cycle!
