    Hmmm.

    Strange issue, well I've got two of the infamous Bob garters, and the female is refusing the baby mice, it turns out it was the smaller male that was going after them. I even tried to force feed the female (I've done it with a picky brazilian before), but she wasn't having any of it! The female will eat fish without a problem. I don't want to feel like I'm jumping the gun here, but it seems that she's gotten a little thicker around the mid section. Could she be refusing larger meals because she's prego?

    She was as thick as the male was after eating two baby mice... So I was starting to put two and two together. I'm guessing she didn't want that much pressure against her insides... We'll see. I was warned that pugets from Bob occasionally are sent prego, which if this happens to be the case, I'll estactic. Seeing as I bought the breeding pair to breed

    Interesting. Hopefully your guess is right. That would certainly make your breeding project easy!
