I suspected some time ago that my l�il Winkys might be "with eggs." So I set her up a box just in case and I�ve been putting her in it daily to let her know it�s hers (should she need it) and to get used to it. The only interest she has taken in it so far is to poop in it! There was no mention of any prior egging experience when I took her in (I was at work, she was left with my son in a pet carrier) so I don�t even know if this would be her first experience if she does
have them. At any rate, with my total lack of experience in my area, my biggest fear is that she will become eggbound.

What I want to know from you guys is if you think you can make an educated guess based on this picture. I mean, to me, she looks quite chunky but I don�t see these "egg shapes" others speak of. My vet is already on the alert, so I�m not really looking for medical advice - just seeking guesses of what might be seen thru trained eyes :-)
