Pregnant or just fat?

I’ve never had males and females together before and I’m hoping for some babies 🤞
I raised a small group recently and plan to get more from another colony for diversity (only two babies died from the group I got and one is one molt away from maturity, the rest are full grown)
Last night they got a special treat, their favorite food, pears. So they basically ignored everything else and gorged themselves on pears all night 😭
I have a photo of her, her “sister”, and a chunky male in the group
Their feedings are typically veggies though. Every feeding I offer vegetables and every other feeding I offer vegetables and fruit. They also get plain oats and kibble if they want it (I just let them have a bit of my dog’s kibble and yes, it’s a healthier brand)
They only like the dry foods inbetween feedings

Mummified rabbit head

My favorite piece so far!
White mummified rabbit head with beaded white lace and black beaded lace background. The frame has been wrapped with black velvet fabric.
I bought the head and at first planed on just putting it in a plain frame before having this idea! I’d bought discounted lace a while ago and decided now was the best time to use it. Took me a while to cut it all out properly, trial and error. When I was done I hated the color of black the frame was so I just cut and wrapped with fabric.
8.5”x5.5”
(First image was done with a white sheet and it came out…well, it looks like a cut out so I also took one with my typical black sheet background)

Was I being rude?

This is the only image I could get of the listing so you all can see what I am talking about. They also blocked me as soon as they sent that last message.

Huge step today!

My male tokay gecko, Otto (almost 2 years old) had a bad experience recently. While I was handling him someone I live with came in with a plastic bag and it scared him horribly. I had to grab him pretty frantically before he got under anything, needless to say he was pretty scared. I put him back and decided to go slow. I fed him in his enclosure the next day and then yesterday (two days after the incident) I took him out. He wasn’t crazy happy and I did get nipped but then he mellowed out and allowed me to even pet him. I gave him some food and when he was done he actually told me he wanted to go back in his enclosure! He looked right at it and tried to jump inside, I put out my hand and he landed on it since I knew he would 100% miss. Then he went back.
I’m so proud of him! The communication and trust is such a massive milestone!

Craft grade oddity boxes

Just finished up these craft grade oddity boxes, pretty happy with how they’ve came out. I tagged and identified everything and included a skeletal reference image.
Axis deer hide piece and craft grade bones from raccoons and a deer.

Dog bones in the works, should I whiten?

A collection of bones from three different canine skeletons that I’m working on, wondering if I should keep the patina on some of them. Though I know I’ll whiten the vertebrae.
