Sometimes that overly large lump from feeding during this time of the year, is accentuated by developing follicles. Your meal was the right size, but her insides are a little more "full".

In our breeding trials this year I have noticed this with all of our females who have been bred (not neccesarily gravid)and fed. Most if not all of them are very large now. Also, to add a note, I believe that I have only witnessed 2 ovulations out of 8 of our breeding females. All females are "HUGE" and all males have stopped courting / breeding. Even when taken out and re-introduced several days later. Whats going on???? I stopped trying to figure it out....makes my head hurt
