I'm Taking Guesses......

Sunshine Aug 20, 2005 04:17 PM

Here's a pic from today of my possibly gravid female who seems to be late. The last possible breeding was Feb 17 because that is the date the male was removed. I think she's gravid....does she look gravid to you? I got her out to clean the cage and make her move a bit.

Looks like she's gravid to me. Also noted she is carryignit all towards the tail end, typical just prior to giving birth.......keep you fingers and toes crossed. Did you give her a nice damp spot to drop her babies?

I'm mentally trying to envision how you pick a female up like that? The babies don't get harmed? (Not nit picking, seriously ignorant here). She looks so heavy!
