Ever notice a second ovulation?

I know boas can ovulate twice. I've had a couple females including the one pictured that appeared to ovulate 2 times.

Nice shot of ovulation!!! I know that Jeff Ronne attributed this 'second' ovulation to an observation I made in a Surinam that produced in '95, but what it may actually be is ovulation of the 2 ovaries at different times. In the Surinam it was about 7-10 days apart. Sure would be nice to have a high-resolution ultrasound machine handy!!! SJM
PS-Good luck this season!
