really asking for help

[rudyhad7]

my 8 month old female rudis that i've had since birth feels bloated. Her belly is somewhat hard and round. She moves slow, sometimes not at all, extremely slow with her tongue while eating. Overall she looks healthy but i'm a bit concerned after purchasing a new male who is much thinner and overall more reactive than her. Is this a sign of some sort of parasite or constipation? Would really appreciate a few opinions!

Rudis give live birth, she might be dropping slug (egg sacks) soon you will not need a laying box she will just drop them as she pleases they will look like orange tic tacs.

that could also explain her sluggish behavior?

It could, but usually a day or two before they drop them they roam all around the cage looking for a good spot.

She seems to have gular edema....could be normal if she is producing slugs...but maybe you could list the supplements you use and how often for each? Be specific please. Also, what do you gutload/feed insects with?
