Adult female
Last ate 1/22/09 (Md rat - F/T) - has not defecated
* I forgot to check the last time she DID defecate
Last shed 1/21/09

She is a breeding female and has locked up 4-5 times. When I feel the mass it seems soft and goes all the way down to the tail. I cannot feel whether she has anything (fecal/urates) inside her. Have not been able to feel follicles and have not observed an OV. She has been paired up since early Nov. (off & on) and started getting big in January. At first I thought maybe she was "building" since this is my first breeding season but now it looks like this.
Husbandry: tub/aspen/low 90's - mid 80's/ night drop on flexwatt (12am-6am)/ room constant 80-81
Before her eating the last time she had not eaten since Nov. Thought this as normal since it was the start of the season.


Thoughts?
