Hello I am almost ready to release my little girl and all has been great except for the last mth I have noticed she is really Wilding up and showing aggressive behavior. I noticed this morning she had some watery pale blood on her pad. It looked the color of watermelon juice. It is not Bright red blood. It scared the heck out of me but got to thinking of how she has been acting and I am thinking she is on her period. She is 10 mths old and her vulva is also swollen. Am I right? Is she having her period? I plan to release next weekend if all goes well. Have her a house with predator guards and a feeding station. I am going to miss her terrible but it's time to let her go. She is ready and I am ready. Now if I can just tell my heart that! Thank you all for being here and helping me wirh little girl. It has been a very blessed and educational journey! :Love_Icon

I would hang onto her until this passes - she doesn't need to get pregnant right away... She will likely be well past it by next weekend but if she isn't, give that some thought.

Thank you CritterMom! I will hold on to her until this passes for sure. How long does it last? I just noticed her menstrual with the faint colored blood but she has been Wilding up for the past mth or two. Thanks again for your reply!
