Hi,



I've asked this before, but I'm still anxious about it so I'll ask again. How late into a pregnancy can you feed? And should you continue to do so when there has been no defecation? I believe, if the 103/105 day estimate applies, that our two girls will be due Jan 13 and Jan 30ish. Tonight they both voraciously ate a large F/T rat. Their normal(pre-gravid) meal was Rodent Pro xxxlg guinea pigs. Their last meal (1 lg rat--Pet Co) was 11/13. I'm trying to follow the "1/2 the size, twice as long" rule, but Odin's last urates were 10/20, Freya's were 10/23. The last time they may have [bleep] was 9/17. Our apartment is chronically dry. We've recently tried adding in a humidifier, but I'm still spraying their tanks 1-2 times per day. I had included soaking down the girls with that until I was told here that would drop their body temps. I was told here or in Herp Health and Breeding that if hydrated, they'd poop eventually.

Do I feed again next month or wait until February, when they've hopefully delivered?



Thank you for your time,

Antigone
