Re: Gravid??

Looks very possible to me, Josh. She is "extra" heavy. Try gently massaging her belly and see if you feel any lumps. That would be a sure sign.

Re: Gravid??

If she does have babies I wish you the best of luck with them ! Would you release some of them or sell/give them all away?

Re: Gravid??

How long does it usually take for a female to display signs of being gravid?
