Hmmm, Ovulation?? (keep fighting S.373)

rainbowsrus Dec 11, 2009 12:00 PM

A few weeks back my Albino Arabesque Jasmine swelled up after being bred by Chester, A really bright colorful Sunglow from Jason Robeck.


I thought to my self cool, pre-ov swell. Then a little while later she swelled up again, larger than before but not OMG swollen and I thought OK ovulation but not huge double cool - wrong. Checked on my breeders this morning and BAM, she's in full blown ovulation right now. looks like she swallowed something huge (I looked, the Sunglow male is fine and curled up next to her).

It's amazing how abruptly her body swells out from normal to swollen.

Of course the standard - excuse the messy cage disclaimer. I give up on keeping the cages clean during breeding season, as soon as I change the paper, the female is spreading around urates.

These sights are one of many we stand to lose if we don't keep on fighting, calling, emailing, etc. Keep up the good work
