... or ovulation? I noticed this swell on Friday (first pic) and she still looked swollen on Sunday night, which I think is too long for ovulation. I thought she still looked swollen tonight (Wed.) but after looking at the pics, I think it has subsided. She ate 2 med rats on 2-23 and one med rat 3-1, so I don't think it is a meal.

Male has been all over her but I have not seen copulation. Similar last year, didn't have babies last year though.

Most likely Pre Ovulation swell.(mayuring egg folicles).

You would know a Ovulation.

Looks a little bigger and more pronounced.

Hope this helps.

Thanks! I'm keeping the male in, he is still all over her.

Should I continue to feed her heavily? I want her to have plenty of weight early so I don't have to push her very hard while gravid.
