Question What a surprise!

Well just under 4 weeks ago I brought a leo named Mojo with the intent of breeding from her next year. She is now about 10 months old and weighing 40g. I've been keeping an eye on her as she didn't seem to be putting weight on her tail even though see was eating well.

Well she was very timid when I first got her and until today I've not handled her outside the viv. While I was handling her I checked her over and to my surprise she is gravid!

She hasn't been any where near my male so I know hes not the culprit. But she was with one of her younger brothers at the pet store.

So Now I'm left wondering if
a. Her brother has mated with her and she has started to bred at a young age!

or.......

b. She has started to produce infertile eggs (probably more likely)

Anyway I'm keeping an close eye on her with her being so young and small and increasing her calcium and other vits.

sorry I've waffled on..................
