laying inverted ?.....

adamjeffery Nov 14, 2009 11:07 PM

i have a female pastel ball that over the last few days has been laying on her side and looking kinda "jagged" if not for better words. she is only 600-650 grams. ive had her since shortly after birth. my nephew was playing with her and put her back in the wrong tub so she was near a male but for no more than an hour or two. so its possible they locked but the male was only 400 grams -50grams. ive been introducing the male too my adult normal and he is showing no interest so i doubt it......
my question is do some balls just lay inverted for no other reason or is she maybe just ovulating....also not sure if it matters but she is in shed as well.
