Taffy is like a swiss timepiece!!!!

rainbowsrus Feb 15, 2008 12:57 AM

Still have one more piece of the timing puzzle to go but so far it looks like Taffy has been studying the breeding manual....

Introduced to male on - 10/31

Courting started - 11/01

Pre-ov swell - 01/21 (a little long since intro but OK)

Ovulation - 01/28 (7 days - like clockwork)

Post ovulation shed - 02/14 (18 days, like clockwork again)

Sheding tonight, LOL half shed and in HCP

Maybe she'll be nice and kick it out of her coils for you like mine did.

Looks real good for you. Hope it continues and you get an awesome litter from it.

Well, after a couple of hours and she was still in the same position, I did cut through the rolled up band. It was not tight but I'd never seen one "fall asleep?" mid shed like that. I thought maybe it was stuck? She did finish shedding last night but of course is laying on it!!!
