I have both females still and the one that had a litter last year was not planned.... I never saw them breed but they were shipped to me in the same container and had been together.
I was told they were captive born but both have tons of scars on body and tail, Therefore I have no idea as to timing of breeding and gestation.
My current female appeared to be losing weight at first but now has gained 30 grams. I have only fed her two or three times eating 3 fuzzies at a time.
When I first got her I weighed her, she fed the couple times, then cease feeding. Since then I have weighed her and she weighs more. So whether the weight gain is from the couple feedings, water intake or babies??? I do not know. Thats why I posted here for the pros to provide opinions.
I also have a non eating male that I have attempted to feed several times for months with no luck and was attempting to get some voles from that website. No response to my email yet though and I am worried about the thing. he weighs about 23 grams and does not appear to be losing.
