    Pregnant?

    Hi everyone. I have a friend who has a BP and he thinks that she's pregnant. I don't know how to check so my question is what are the tell tale signs that she is pregnant? Any advice or input would help. Thanks.

    Well, I can tell you that she isn't pregnant. She may be gravid, though.

    Watch her to see if she's favoring the cooler side of the tank or wrapping around the water bowl. When she ovulates you may be able to see or palpate eggs also.

    I have noticed my girls on the cool end, laying "semi" inverted and just this evening one of my girls was found lumping as well (they have a lumpy or kinked look). Those are all signs that may point to gravidity as well. I am still not great at palpating but I have been doing that as well and so far seems promising
