I have 2 males and 1 female which the males are about 6-7 months old, we just bought the female and she is just a few weeks. I was wondering how am I going to tell when she is pregnant? All three are in the same cage and getting along fine. Or could she be to young to mate??

Any info will help thanks

a few week???

getting a female of such young age to mate isn't such a good idea

This is my first time here. My first reply. You should have just bought a female from Petco, you wouldn't have to worry about breeding. I bought 2 female dwarfs and 2 weeks later I had 9 babies!!! I love them to death. I didn't think that I would get attached. I did SOOO much research. One thing that I found was not to breed very young, they may hurt or even eat the babies. I watched those babies day and night to make sure something awful didn't happen. GOOD LUCK

yea all are true dont mate the dwarfs yet until she i 4 or even 5 months old!!! At 2 months she will not be ready for this just let her be alone for a couple of months and come back after that if u still want pups. But while u are waiting u should research on breeding so u know(if u still want to)all about breeding!!!!Also ask yourself do u have the MONEY,TIME,SKILLS.
