Right now, she is getting fatter despite refusing food for three months. I am unsure about the glow. I never noticed, but with a couple other females I have seen the "glow"... some of them are super noticeable, others not so much. Well, I only have three females that are for sure gravid. One of them as grown so light in color, you could not even tell she is the same BP. While she bowl wrapped I noticed she had a lumpy spine.
