Does my girl look gravid?

[wax32]

I put my pin in with her in the beginning of June. I never witnessed any hookups. I did leave them together for a week or two, in case he became interested.

She hasn't eaten now since July 17th, she has previously never skipped a meal, except occasionally when in DEEP Blue. She last shed middle of June. She has recently, within the last month or so, seemed to have gotten "fatter" even though she hasn't eaten in a while.

I'm looking at her today and see she is laying sort've lop-sided over the heat tape...



Is she maybe gravid? Is the time-line more or less right? Or is she just going off feed early for an upcoming shed? This is my first time attempting to breed my bps.

I offered her a rat again today and she sniffed it a bit but then ignored it, same thing she has done the last few tries.

PS, she is 1581 grams today.

Looks like it's time to take a dump...

YEah I noticed that too. Maybe she is just "holding".

Maybe she is just "holding".

That would be my guess

[wax32]

I left the rat in there with her and I came back an hour later and it had "magically" disappeared. Hunger strike aborted I guess. Maybe she is just wanting them dropped off now instead of zombie danced.

Now that she has eaten I bet she makes bears tomorrow....

If you hold her up from the first half of her body and let her hang, you will be able to see the eggs(if she has them).

Also, if she is not eating right now and that is out of the norm, then pair her up. Most females go off food when they are in "breeding mode". Try misting them down when in with each other to try and stimulate them. Have you palpated her yet?

did you catch her sheds?
