Our little Blue Tick, Maggie Blue, was raised on Eukanuba feed, small breed puppy then premium performance sporting. . On her first litter we had her on the the Euk Sporting formular and she ate GOBS of it after whelping her litter!!! We gave her all she could eat.. They need lots of protien going in for good milk production.. She had 6 gorgeous pups and they all went to pet homes (dang we were hoping for at least one interested in hunting) and are doing real good.. Hope this helps!!!

I just feed whatevr im feeding at the time. Ive had litters whelped on Black Gold 26/18, Sportmix 26/18, and Pride 26/18 with no problems. I think the main thing is to up the bitches feed after they are Whelped.
