How long does an ovulation last if the male didn't do his job and get the female pregnant? I've been reading "the ultimate care manual" and the breeding part that Jeff Ronne wrote, some things in there make me think my female is gravid, some things in there make me feel like she's just ovulating. I put my male with her in October if I remember correctly and separated them two times for feeding, once the male was no longer interested, I took him out. Now my female looks pretty big, but she's doing the slow motion movements like Jeff pointed out occurs when she's ovulation. Did I miss something? it's driving me crazy that I don't actually know if she's pregnant or not, is it too late to put the male back and see if they lock up again? as you can tell I don't really know what I'm doing here, have to start somewhere right?
