Is my winter white pregnant?

[luv4hammys101]

I just recently got a Female winter white and when i got her she looked really fat! i dont know if she is pregnant or just fat. she is building a nest in her hut. i have never had a winter white before. i have had Cambell's and Robo's. is there anything that i should know about them?


these pictures were the only good ones sorry. shes always in her hut and when not she moves alot. so its hard to get a good picture. if you need any more just say so and i will try my best!

I'm unsure to be fair. I just wanted to say she is very pretty

She does look round, but i can't tell if its pregnant round or not!
I reccommend giving her lots of extra bedding and added protein and fat in her diet (mealworms, boiled egg white, chicken, peanuts) just in case she is pregnant. Also, removing the wheel now as if she is showing pregnancy pups will arrive soon, approximately in the next few days but thats just a guess.
A nice calm environment for her and playing the waiting game are the only other things I can suggest. You should hear the pups when they arrive, but don't touch or disturb the nest and keep handling of mum to a minimum. Continue the extra protein and fat if she gives birth. Then, pups will open there eyes around 14 days old, sometimes a bit earlier in ww's, and they can then be handled Though they might try escape from the nest before then.

Hope shes not but best of luck anyway x

thanks for the info. she is always in her hut under her nest which makes me think she might be. but that might be just me. when my cambells have babies they did, but again i dont know much about the Winter whites. she is very sweet though. i dont want to touch her to much because i have just recently just got her and if she is pregnant i dont want her to get to stressed.
here are some more pictures if this helps:

She's a cutie!!!!!! I think you can feel the sides get a little bit lumpy if there are babies! It's always safe to be prepared for that when you first get a female ham
