prego, or fatso, LOL!!!
this is my other little lady. i got her about a month ago and she was gravid. im sure she wasnt mated before i got her, because she would have prbably laid before lizzy. its a sequence of events, and thats how i placed it,lol... however i didnt see her mate,but she is a bit of a pig. i thought she just liked to eat. however maybe i didnt realize she was eating for others. shes a big girl now, alot bigger then when i got her. i thought she was really healthy. a success story!!now shes a bit unatuarlly fat!! but maybe she just knocked up, lol!! in that case then will i have to worry once she lays, because she may be underwieght. well tell me what you guys think.

She is nice and plump, but I don't see any red/orange blush on her. Maybe it is just hard to see in the pics. If she is developing eggs, you should notice some orange color and usually egg shaped lumps will be seen in her abdomen. Usually once the female has been bred to, the orange color will intensify, though sometimes it just appears in full intensity, overnight.
Good luck.

like i said she was gravid when i got her. she had a few orange dashes when i got her. i put her with my male so that they could mate. im not sure if she was, but you never know. all i know is that she put on some size after i got her. she ate really well, but it just seemms like shes a little to big. also my other female orange spots began to fade right before she laid eggs. this females orange is fading as well. not sure if its a connection, but thats what happend.
