Hi Everyone

My female bobtail appears to be gravid but I can't be 100% sure.
Does anyone know if a home pregnancy test would work for bobtails?
:)
 
Bump!
Has anyone tried it or know of someone who has?
 
I dont know about your question, but if its gravid it should be basking alot more and it should be quite large.

Lol. I was wondering if bobtails would have HGC in their urine the same a a pregnant human. The HGC is what turns the test positive.
 
G'day,

Towards the end of her gestation period, her food intake will decrease or stop. Other than that, she will become ridiculously huge.
 
And the strange food cravings....

Seriously though, if you want a definitive answer take it to a vet for an ultrasound.
