    This is fun :)

    Actually I have! a few times. To move them into a pile for them, even though they moved em to a different spot later lol. Mom nipped me a couple times when I gave her my finger WHILE preggo, but I put my finger in front of her mouth and it didn't even hurt, so I think she was tasting me. Anyway, no aggression. Lol. I'm so happy!

    If you can't tell, headspot cinny is mom and the cinny is helping. The agouti is more preggo than the cinny and helps too, but for some reason the smallest, least preggo asf I have is doing most of the work lol.

    lmao they are scared of the finger!

    I have a colony where there is a preggo that is nursing more than the mom. Maybe it's some sort of nesting

    Yup! What I found is that since they are such slow growers that as im waiting for them to get big enough the others just keep kicking them out. I loaded one 20l tank with about 10 from a few colonies till they are big enough and started another colony from a few babies for breeding from different parents, now they are all starting to breed.

    By the way, this little girl had 9 little babies and she herself is sooo small. She was packed full, so I'm pretty proud! I think she'll have 1.5x that many next time.
