Worried about my jill. Is she pregnant or not?

[liongeorge 7]

Hi all , I have a Jill that I got served with a hob quite a while after she went into season ( 5 weeks ago). The hob is as yet unproved though seemed to do the required job. After a week or two her fanny subsided which I thought was a good sign. Since then she has been molting quite heavily, and seems to be eating more than usual, but I am worried as she does not seem to have put on any weight and does not seem fatter. I would have thought with only a week to go she would be quite fat. She has not had a litter before. Should she be fat by now or showing any other signs? or maybe she isn't pregnant?

 

Any help appreciated George

Sometimes with ferrets you never know til about 2-3 days before they have the kits that she is pregnant, her belly will go solid you and her tits will become bigger too

Sometimes as said in last post with 2-3 days to go she will all of a sudden start to sagat the belly but not always sometimes just remain firm belly and not show any signs of sagging but if youve no kits by 3-4 over her due date then youve got issues either not in kit or something gone wrong somewhere down the line but hopefully not atb when they come anyway geo

when you pick her up her belly should go the shape of a light bulb especially at the time of her pregency atb and hope this helps.
