After birth I still found the mother looking to fat.
I was right and after ten days I saw here pressing and did film the birth of a dead baby.

That's too bad Fred. I'm sorry to see that. My first litter of rugosa was one live baby and one still born too. My still born was perfectly formed though, and the same size as the live baby. They were both 85 grams. How much did your live baby weigh at birth?
