She look okay?

[AshleyClark007]

Hi, I am wondering how she looks? She looks puffy down by her lower legs just want to make sure she's okay. Do you think she may have eggs? She hasn't been at the bottom of her cage scratching that I have seen anyways. Also How old so you think she is? She has been in my care for about a month.

Possibly an impaction? Idk is she pooping still?

 

[Tyaeda]

I don't have a female, but some of the people who do here have an egg laying bin inside their enclosure at all times, even before they think she's ready to lay. That way she's used to it being there, and can use it whenever she needs to. If you don't already have one, you're going to need one.

 

[xbrokenbabydoll]

Defiantly should get a layer bin at the bottom so if she is gravid then she has a place to lay her eggs and would help prevent her from becoming egg bound.

 

[AshleyClark007]

Yes she is still pooping/peeing. I am very confused? I thought you couldn't put ANY dirt in her cage? But a laying bin is fine? How do I put a laying bin in her cage?

 

[FlChamMom]

Look on the thread "Harvey, my great veiled" in General Discussions. On post #6 Jannb posted everything you need to know about female veileds including the laying bin. There is even a video!

 

[AshleyClark007]

[AshleyClark007]
