got 3 foster girls on maternity watch
according to what I was told, the last time they were with males was Aug 6th
that would mean that they'd be 15 days along IF they mated and are pregnant
My feeling is that none of them are pregnant, but I've never had a pregnant rat so what do I know LOL
they don't have big bellies. I just started weighing them and in a single day, the gains are only +4, +4 and +8 grams
The +8 grams girl is the only one who has a wee bit of a roundness to her belly but not much.
from what I've been reading, rats often don't look pregnant until the week before they give birth, SO I"m guessing if they are, they will start to show it soon.......?
I hope for their sake that they are not pregnant but since I've never fostered babies it would be interesting for sure
