Gravid Females.

I think my females are gravid but I'm not quite sure. I can't get any good pictures right now so does anyone have any tips for me until I can get the pictures up? thank ya.

With gravid gals, its imperative that you feed them and supplement the feeder insects on a daily basis. If they are gravid, they'll have considerable amounts of strain on the body while it uses the calcium to produce the egg shells.

The lack of food and supplementation can cause severe health issues in females that are gravid, or in the breeding cycle.

Hope this helped.
