julia55 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 My pepperpot has been broody now for about 3 weeks and although I can get her out for food and drink she scampers back into the nest as soon as she's able. I've noticed however that her underbelly is totally bald and she wouldn'd look out of place on the shelves of a supermarkets!!! She doesn't seem to be plucking herself to line the nest but presumably sitting all day is making her bald - is this normal??? and should I be worried that the baldness will spread.....
