    She's probably got a bun in the oven. If you have to ask if they're pregnant, they usually are :)

    Well I was judging by weight, I'm still new to this so I don't know how to figure it out in the early stages.

    Here's pics of her:

    The female in question has mated with the male nearly every night, I keep them together to ensure pregnancy, the last couple days he hasn't tried to mate with her as often as he usually does, so could be a sign, I'm not going to call her pregnant right now based on size lol I really don't know if she is or not, I can't tell until things start getting really noticeable. :P

    Why is it an issue?
    They are in heat when they drop their litter so if a male is in the same tub sometimes the female will end up pregnant the same day they drop babies.
    usually by 10 days pregnant you can visually see belly swell.
    I grab them behind the front legs and hold them upright so the belly sticks out.
    Or you can give them a treat and make them show you the belly ...
