    Re: Happy Time(the lock-up)

    Daisy
    1/6/11 Conception
    1/6/11 100g
    1/13/11 128g-8g(2-4g worms)= a 20g gain in a week.

    Hoping she'll(and babies) continue to grow. Just not 20g a week as she's not a big girl.

    Re: Happy Time(the lock-up)

    Nice going there's that phantom weight again. I was reading something about vipers the other night where an average weight gain of 20g was accounted for by ovulation alone. Nice to get more stats on this intitial part of the cycle

    I should have clarified something in this post. The 8g of worm weight was moments before I weighed her. Prior to the weigh-in she was fed small meals everyday.

    I'm trying this tactic(daily feeding) to see if it will increase the amount of live born and help their overall their health.

    Ah, I see it's still a good jump in weight. I was reading Rossman/Ford/Seigel's book again last night. Nutrition does play a big part. Calcium with the worms might be a good idea

    Finally, a photo that does her colors justice.
    This is as close to her colors as I've been able to capture. Of course, it much better in person.
