she is VERY thin, the pregnancy has really took it out of her
she was a little smaller than the size of a 2p in girth but now shes barely the width of a penny :(

i am confident she will be ok, shewolfed down 2 fuzzys a few hours after i found the eggs. Just wondering when i should feed her next? and how much? another double feed or a single one?

Not keen on the idea of feeding her as much as she will take as is what a few sites are saying :/
