Should I Be Concerned?

becca320 · Apr 11, 2008

Have noticed that this female has got HUGE over the past few days, I know she is pregnant, however she seems to be filling out at the front possibly too much? :blink:

, could she be sick?? She is a greedy pig , near on jumps out of the tank when I open the lid to feed. All in all she seems healthy enough, I am just concered about her as she has more or less doubled in the past 3 weeks ??
Thanks

You are overfeeding her, feed less amounts...

What i would do is, if you have a breeding trap or a hospital tank, put her in and feed her a prozen pea (cook for a few mins, let cool down, then peal the shell off and mush it up in your fingers) then feed it to her.

This will help her to poo..

Good luck.

ps, once she has eaten some of the pea, put her bk in the main tank (do not feed any food to the tank for 24 hours)

thanks, will do now allthough she is pooing like a good un, will have to seperate her when feeding as she just pinches it all

All the others are reasonably thin

Seperating her when feeding is the best bet
