Bazala amadzinyana nofana abokatswana abangaba bathathu ukuya kabana eenkhothini eziminyeneko nofana ngaphasi kweenthurhu ezimilako. Bavamise ukuzala khulu ekupheleni kwehlobo ngemva kwesikhathi sekambiso yokumitha esimalanga angaba masumi asithandathu nobunane ukuya kamasumi alikhomba nambili (68-72 days). Bavamise nokuzalela ngaphakathi kwemigodi, kodwana ukuqinisekisa ukuphepha kwabokatswana, unina ubathuthusa kanengi ukuya eendaweni ezinye zokubhaqa.Lokhu ngokhunye okwenza bona ukutjhejwa kabokatswana kubenzima. Uphila njenge Hlosi, ngokuthi kufanele ahlale atjhiya amadzinyanakhe ukwenzela bona ayokuzuma. Nasele amadzinyana akhule kangangobana angakghona ukuzuma, unina ukhipha lawo aduna emhlambini. Kuthi asikazi ahlale emhlambini kufikela lapho sele alungele ukujarhwa. Ngemva kobana sele alungeleu kujarhwa unina uyawakhipha emhlambini ukwenzela bona ayokuthoma wawo umhlambi.
Ukuziphatha kwabo
Bavamise ukuphila ngamunye ngaphandle kwalokha abasikazi nabalandelwa madzinyanabo kanye nangesikhathi sokujarha. Umhlobolo wabokatsu utshwaya ikhaya labo ngomnukwabo nangephunga, ikhaya labo livamise ukuba silinganiso esimakhilomitha alisumi nahlanu ukuyakamasumi amathathu (15-30 km).

Banjalo nje banesiphiwo esihle sokuzuma, bakghona ukuzwa nesilwanyana esikhamba ngaphasi kwehlabathi. Nabezwa bona kunesilwanyana esikhamba khambako, uyakhukhutha akhambe buthaka, kuthi ngemva kokubona ukuthi singakuphi avele asibhudungele.
