Pregnant Jackson Just Gave Birth and is not Eating

[nicolieooo]

Hi all,
I am new to the forum but have had jacksons for years now. My friend recently gave me her pregnant jackson because she could not take care of it, and five days ago she gave birth to 9 live babies, and 3 dead ones (one with two heads). The babies are doing well but the mom has not been eating at all. Any suggestions? Thanks

how long has it been since she has eaten, before the birth/since etc? what does she normally eat, are you offering the same things? how long have you had her? did you change her habitat or is it the same one she had? definitely more information is needed. as much information as you can proved about the set up and everything else you can think of would help.

The most important thing right now is to get her hydrated. She should start eating again soon. Like was said how long has she not eaten sense she gave birth? A few days is okay, but if it's been going on for more than a week it could be an issue.
