Shiro Delivers...
...her babies!
O.M.G. Hero Material and I were expecting on Dec 10. But she ended up delivering after seventeen days.
I was quite traumatized at first because I heard a lot of long squeals from Shiro and I saw blood on her. Ack!!!! She even refused her favorite treats. I was about to tear all my hair out when she returned to her nest, squealed some more then came out all svelte, minus the blood.
:wub:
Hero Material and I have no idea how many she delivered or anything. She made a super nest inside a heated house, and we can't see. I guess we have to wait at least a couple of weeks.

When our gerbils popped out their surprises many years ago I believe there were four or five babies.
*snicker*
Maybe she got pregnant before you figured out that she was a girl.
Congrats grandma!
Barb,
I'm guessing three or four. I heard them squeal for their mommy. :wub: Also one of the babies escaped the nest, and Shiro had to take him back to the nest. It took a while, but she managed.
Kuro tried to mount her, and I put him in a ball. Later tonight, I'm going to put him in a separate cage. That poor guy. He's going nuts right now.
May,
I doubt it because if she were, she wouldn't have mated with Kuro in front of me...!
