Earlier this month I paired Vectis's Lord James, Earl of Metallica to Vectis's Cora Josephine at Metallica in the hope that they would produce the next generation for Metallica Hamstery's show team.
The pairing went well and Cora began to look rounder towards the early part of last week. She's been busy stashing food away and she's built herself a nice secure nest to rivel the one that Victoria built to have The Nobrias in. Her first due date was the 17th but when I saw her yesterday afternoon, she'd not delivered yet but I'm keeping everything crossed for signs that Cora has delivered safely in the next few days.
Here's a couple of photos from their courtship...
