When do you notice the females are preggo?

[JasonG]

How far away are you from birth when you notice a female is preggo?

Ive had mine for 2 weeks and cant wait til I see some babies!

It seems like they slowly get noticably pregnant about a week before birth... then 3 or 4 days later they litteraly overnight blow up to an ubelievable size.... then three days after that you have babies. The last day or two you really feel sorry for her... she can't even walk anymore... she pretty much waddles like a wounded duck...

DOH!

I did not see the section!

Yeah... what he said. If she looks like wine cork, then she is preggers.

earlier today i noticed one of my girls looking huge so when she drops post so you have a time frame.

the one to ask about this is mcavana (i think thats his name) he knows lots about ASFs

Basically they end up looking like a furry golfball with four legs and beady eyes LOL. The first signs I always notice are side bulging, then basically the sudden furry golfball look then a couple of days later, the little hairy squeekers appear.

[JasonG]

So basically they dont show signs until days before...

[frankykeno]

Well they will show some signs, like the bulging sides but no not a lot. Most female rodents don't show much until the last part of their gestation. They'll just look more chubby, not as sleek but then suddenly sort of balloon out with babies.
