Yes , you are right...I feed   Malt o meal to the babies when they are three weeks old   I make mush with it and they slop it all over themselves and mom cleans them up...Malt o meal is known to have extra folic and drs put humans on it or Cream of Wheat cereal and it has extra added iron also...

When female is mated , I go buy    20 cans of   Blue Shepherd canned puppy food.....all puppy canned foods of any reputable good high quality dog food,  has folic and choline in it....I add it to the liver and other goodies for the female...

I also put powdered milk on the dry dog food every other day or so for potassium

cottage cheese for calcium, natural not a tablet....no liquid either  ,as too  much calcuim can cause problems also....read about  Milk fever....calcuim impackment  caused by too much and it doesnt disembulate probably,    important to know these things....when supplementing them.......vit d and E  are as important as Ester C also...makes everything   bind together in the body properly....
