Posted by: mdc at Sat Mar 5 09:38:51 2005 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by mdc ] Generally speaking, a female will go into a shed cycle soon after ovulation. This is the post ovulation shed or POS. This shed cycle will usually last much longer than a normal shed cycle. After this, the female will usually be much darker than normal. She will also tend to stay in the heat conservation position, ie. curled up on the warm side. Gravid females will also usually maintain a higher than usual temp. around 88 or 89 deg. Some will go off feed and others will continue to feed. I feed my gravid females a small meal every three weeks. Make sure not to feed a large meal as this can harm the developing babies. Also, stop feeding during the last few weeks of gestation because it can cause premature birth. | ||
