a quick breeding Q

aboaslife Jan 24, 2009 11:59 PM

I couldnt really get an answer from the eariler twisting Q.
I have a female that was pretty much on her side twisted up looking do they normally do that while ovulating or after ov?
Because I just pulled the male out and was wondering if I should put him back but if they normally do it after ov then he did his job and ill leave him out. Well any input would be helpful thanks

There aren't any "rules" that boas follow for ovulation. Sometimes you get the more "typical" football looking one. Of course, ovulations can "look" very different in some females. Laying on her side isn't a sign that normally says, "ovulation". Not sure what you mean about "twisting up". Pictures are always good, to help see what you're talking about.

If the male "lost interest" and your female is either "in shed" or has shed "after" the male lost interest..... Then the males job may be done. If the male hasn't lost interest, you should leave him in with her.
