| def bloat, gravid females often display a pinkish or yellowish hue around the belly and the swelling is usually lower down.
Get her on the peas ASAP! | |

| def after support previous advice.. looks like bloat to me too... I have had gravid females but not that big either... as far as how long the female could have been like it, I am not sure... may be one of the others who have experience with it more may be able to give you better advice  | |
