Are the kittens nursing well and is mom tending to them?

So sorry to hear the first 3 did not make it.

So two are alive and seems healthy?   Good!

Keep good eye on them, weigh them every day so you follow the development closely, etc.

Are they well shaped, rounded, with fur?

I am sorry to hear about the stillborn. Always a sad ending. Glad to hear that the other ones are doing good and nursing.

Congrats on your bunch and sorry about the stillborn. Do you have a scale to keep track of the kittens weights?

Everyone is doing great kittens are gaining weight momma is good no problems with nursing :) i know it's not normal but one kitten has an eye open already and I noticed it had opened at 2 days old, can that cause any problems at all or do i not need to worry about it?
