She is prego and expecting soon, along with the other female (who looks much bigger). I cant feed her off as I dont have a snake big enough, I cant kill her cuz she is pregnant. Reading those articles, it seems female rats that have pups get tumors.
I think ill just have to wait it out on this one. |
If she's tame enough, you could put her in a tub of warm water with johnson's baby shampoo so that she can wash herself and put her separate to have her babies so she's the only one feeding then you can better evaluate the situation.
I usually keep some females out of the pups back to "grow my own."
