Update on the diet girl - Whitie

gothra Aug 22, 2004 09:29 AM

I weighed her tonight, she gained another 0.5g this week (she also gained 0.5g last week). I have already cut down her food items from 6-8 supers to 8 mealies or 2 crickets per feeding, 3 times a week. She is currently 88g.

I am starting to think that maybe she has eggs (although she's in a tank by herself), I've looked at her underside, can't see any egg outline, but I haven't seen a gravid female myself, so I don't know if the eggs will show through obviously or not? I also tried feeling her belly to see if there are any eggs in there, but I can't feel anything. Is there anyway that I can find out whether she is gravid or not?

p.s. when I pressed lightly on her belly, she farted on my hand......I can still remember she was the one that pooped on my hand once...!!
