Granite Female Surprise Gravid

RMCADguy May 25, 2008 09:14 PM

My light female granite is gravid. This is really interesting because she is still very small, and she has never been with a male. She is with another chuck, but I am certain it is female and it is half the size of her. But, she is lumpy with eggs.

Thankfully, Nick Dokai doesn't live too far from me and he was kind enough to help me out. He let me borrow a young male to put with her to see if the eggs can be fertilized. I hope they will be good eggs, but of course, her well being is paramount.

First pic is of her, the second is of the male biting NDokai.

Don't think he wanted to leave.

Poor Nick! Ouch!

Good luck! I hope the eggs get fertile, although I am amazed that they can be fertilized now. I have a lot to learn about chucks.
