    What I meant was before the bones are digested.
    With that being said I don't suppose there is anyway for bones to come in contact with the egg chain since it comes after the bones have dissolved and the food item has passed into the small intestine.
    Then it passes through the large intestine, colon, rectum and out into the water dish.

    I knew what Steve meant. Yes, they are digested but they still have to go inside in the first place.

    Re: Is my girl pregnant or not?

    Update:

    She used to eat like a horse but yesterday she only ate 2 fish Her weigth is now 350 grams

    Today is day 80 counting from the day I observed breeding for the first time (15th march).

    She does a alot of twitching, I hope it's normal.

    I have moved her to an escape proof cage now - the wait is unbelievable hard

    Hi,

    she looks also gravid to me!
    That is totaly normal! They usually stop eating the days before birth.
    I think the next days you will get a lot of nice babys
    Keep the substrate a little bit wet now.
    Good luck!

    Best wishes,
    Manuel

    Sometimes the twitching is to produce body heat for the little ones inside her. She shouldn't have to do that if she's warm enough and I think you'll find if you increase the temperature, the twitching will stop.
