First some pics of 2 mice I found out to be pregnant yesterday. The pied lady more obvious than the brown one, but both very apparent, even for a novice (me)... :crazy02:
Last pic in the reply is from a lady I had sitting with a male for weeks. That male put the other 2 with babies so he's fertile, but this lady didn't get pregnant... I put her in with him 'cause her genitals looked a little swollen (not reddish) so I thought maybe it was a sign of being in heat... Since she didn't show any sign of being pregnant after 5-6 weeks I decided to set the male with some other females. Her genitals still look the same today(after 3 weeks of being with only female and 1 week with a teenage male added); swollen, not reddish and somewhat 'opened'. There seems to be something sticking out in the lower part, it's pale pink and not hanging loose or so so I don't expect it to be intestines or internal tissue... When touched it feels solid, not wet and not slimy. It seems to stick out more lately. Her condition seems a little off; lost some weight I think though I'm not sure really. Further she has shown to be allergic to aspen, so she's a little problem child... I'm thinking of feeding her off but maybe some people here know what it could be and how to cure it without vet bills. Cause she's a breeder animal and not a pet after all... Or shouldn't I feed her to the snakes because of this?
