[nic247306]

Hi all,
i have a bp and was wondering if their are any visual signs to determine if my female ball is pregnant thank you

[lillyorchid]

How old is she? What is her weight? And was she in with a male?

[nic247306]

yes they have been together for the last two months..my daughter thought she saw them locked up but not sure ...she seems different she does not come out as much as usual .

[rabernet]

Are you intentionally trying to breed? I'm trying to figure out why they are housed together?

[nic247306]

her weight is just a little under a 1000g as of today ..she is 2

That's a little small to intentionally try and breed her. For her health, I hope she's not gravid, and I would seperate them as soon as possible to avoid an unwanted breeding.

She could become egg bound (which could kill her) and there are a few other health problems, not to mention the fact that she probably wouldn't give you more than 2 or possibly 3 eggs at that size.... the chances that they are fertile is also low.
