Hi all!
So Lyra, my female BD has been very busy this past week (and now). She's acting like she's got slug eggs, she has never been bred. She's about 2 and half years old. She weighs 444 grams, which is a bit more than usual, from what I remember. Lyra's belly has also increased in size as well. She has also been black bearding off and on, but she is very alert and healthy... I did a comparison with my other female to Lyra, Lyra has bumps, and my other girl does not...
What are the differences between slug and fertile egg laying (besides having been bred or not)? Does slug egg laying usually happen easily and naturally, or are they more prone to getting egg bound with the infertile eggs?
So what do I need to get for her? Are there things I need to watch out for? What do I need to be concerned about?
Thank you!
