Question

Nile_monitorar Aug 08, 2008 04:34 PM

When a monitor first gets gravid are they less hungry or more hungry? My ackie looks a bit on the heavy side and for the first time ever she refused to eat and was just laying by the basking side, i have seen some mating going on but i don't know cause they started mating over 2 months ago and no eggs, so any answers? thanks..

Sounds like typical gravid symptoms to me, but it could be a few other things. Has she been digging lately? Do you have suitable nest-laying substrate?

Take care!
