Hello everyone! So this morning my standard gray female gave birth to 3 beautiful kits. The only thing that worries me is that the night before she gave birth, I saw her mate (a mosaic) massing with her. I've read about back breeding and how she can get pregnant the day of giving birth..but it's it possible for her to be pregnant again after massing a night before she gave birth? Thanks a bunch! :)

Count out 111 days on your calendar so you know her approximate due date.

Next time, remove the male BEFORE she's due...
 
Breed backs are very taxing on females, especially so since she is nursing 3 babies and her body would be making more babies for the first 8 weeks.
If this is even a quality pedigreed chin she will need a rest before she is reunited with her mate.
