Awww she sounds sweet. Did you name her after Becky our resident poop person and rat lady extraordinaire??? LOL
Just make sure to let her visit the male for a bit of time. The females go into heat every 4 or 5 days I think it is, so probably best if she stays with him for a couple of heat cycles just to be sure or until she is obviously showing pregnancy (though that can be very very near to time of delivery).
We have one female just now getting ready to deliver her first litter. On the 10th of December she just barely was developing a tummy......here's her pic as of last night. Poor thing is literally growing before our eyes and is much bigger than the female that had a litter of 9. I expect this female will likely deliver today.
This is Lucky so named because she was bought as a feeder and no one wanted to eat her LOL, so she got promoted to a breeder.
~~Jo~~
P.S. It's just going on 7:30 a.m. and Lucky is starting to deliver her litter. I'm sure she'll feel much better once they are all out! Can't wait to see how many she produces![]()
