Pretty sure she's pregnant.

But I thought I would let ya'll tell me for sure. We have had her maybe 3 weeks. We got her from a store that has both sex's' in an enclosure together. I noticed her really plump today and she seems to be laying low a lot. I took some pics to show.

*nods* I can't tell you for how long, but i'm sure some people could help you out!

Do you have your laying bin prepared, and are you prepared to leave her alone for a while?

 

[lazzara8478]

Thankyou, cant wait to hear approx how far she is ... I cant say I wanted babies but there is nothing cuter.

 

[lazzara8478]

anyone care to give me a guess on how far along?

You don't need a laying bin. Jacksons give live birth. What you do need is lots of fruit flys or pin head crickets. She looks pretty big to me so, you could be looking at soon. But I am a lousy judge of how far along they are. Just a thought but if she is carrying babies, I wouldn't hold her around the middle.

@laurie wow I didnt know jacksons had live birth! =D Where do the jacksons normally have them at though? I'd be scared of her giving birth way up in the tree.

I already knew they give live birth, I think thats pretty neat. I usually wiggle my fingers under her till she steps up on my hand because no one likes to be forced onto anything.

 

[Leroux2008]

It is impressive! Good luck on your birthing though ^^ She does look rather big, I would just try to stay prepared and be ready for anything!

I saw some videos of live birthing chams that drop them in trees but the birthing membrane is super sticky and they get stuck on teh first thing it touched.
