Hypo female has shed> question inside>

gmherps Feb 19, 2007 08:50 AM

3 times in 3 months. I believe she is gravid. Is she getting close to dropping ya think? I have never had a female shed so much without any food. This is very uncharacteristic for any of the females that have ever dropped for me.

Anything?

Although I can't provide an answer as to why that is happening, I can say that I have seen something similar this season. All four of the females here that have been gravid for a bit have shed a second time. This is a first for me, but we will see what happens. God luck with your girl.
