We fed Queenie on Sunday and all went fine, she took them no problems.
I defrosted them in a jar of warm/hot water till they were defrosted.
I have noticed yesterday and today that she has like a bumpy corrogated effect on one side and right where the 2nd rat pup is.
Is this bumpy corrogated look normal after a feed?
If this dose come across to some as a silly question, i'm sorry but i've always found this site to be wealth of knowledge.
Thanks (be kind) |

The bumps seem to get a bit bigger when she breathes in and smaller when she exhales.
She seems normal enough, only had a short time.
She is doing wee but hasn't pooped , but i guess that will come.
Back to her bumps, it's like 3-4 bumps in a space of about 5cm max. like this ______n_n_n______
body ^ bumps body
not the best diagram, i'll attempt to take a photo. :mrgreen:

I'd imagine it is just the shape of the pinkies making those bumps. It's most common when more than one meal is eaten at once.

As long as you are leaving her be and letting her digest in peace, no picking her up, all will be fine.
