A little stressed today ... Call me a worrywort but I'm allowed to be after last year.
I moved Suzy back into the main enclosure today. She's been fairly active over the last week and didn't seem to be thermo-regulating as she should. While handling her today she felt cold (noticeably) yet didn't seem to want to know about the warm spot in her tub (yet the set-up is fine and the temp at 30C). Yet - as soon as I put her in the normal abode she found the warm hide and has been there ever since.
She's obviously not a fan of tub life (I can honestly say that none of my snakes see this as a preferential place to live) whereas Fawn doesn't seem to care and spends all of her time on the hotspot.
Just hope it hasn't compromised anything.

OK, you're a worrywort.

Hope all turns out good. Prayers coming your way.

Thanks Steve. The fact she hasn't eaten for over a month now bugs me too (not that I haven't been there before) .... even tried offering a worm today ... nada

Big booty!!!! ... Suzy's stock has mooved South from the looks of it. Seeming a little difficult moving her butt about.









Still doesn't want food .... and after being very active (wanting to get out of her tub) she's been spending all her time in the warm hide of her normal enclosure.

OK, you're a worrywort.

Yes, you are Greg. I nearly always see this happen with my concinnus girls in the late stages, usually that last 20 days or so. They will refuse food during that time or barely eat anything and they also seem to stay on the cool side whereas the majority of their pregnancy was all about staying very warm and massive intake of food.

Take a good look at her entire body. Feel her as you hold her. Does she feel weak when she moves, does she seem limp, stiff, or without energy? I think you'll find she has excellent muscle tone and she definitely doesn't look malnourished. All excess baggage aside, she's pretty thick and strong looking. No worries.

If she continues to refuse food for weeks after the babies come, and starts to get weak and sort of deteriorate, then worry.

She's not quite 100% on her usual perkyness but that will be down to the load she's carrying. Feeling really lumpy today .... Hurry up squiggs!!!!

Nothing unusual about that. Won't be long now!

Yesterday, day 78 - About 19.30 Suzy started delivery. 25 homeless snails so far (to the weight of 30g), I had a quick feel and she's still got 2/3 to squeeze out. A rather disappointing slugfest I'm afraid .... I did get some video footage last night and will ping up a few photos shortly.
