If she hasn't pooped in a while you should stop feeding her until she does! Try handling her a while and then put her back. She may go within 24 hours if not try soaking her in a warm tub of water for an hour and return her again to her cage. If she still doesn't go she may need to see a vet. Constipation can lead to serious problems! How long has it been and how much/often has she eaten? Good luck! :'(

Usually two or three days. Watch for rain. They love to give birth on rainy days.
