Problem with females

leo_boy Apr 09, 2004 06:02 PM

I was checking my females a couple of days ago and i notaced that some of them seem to have an egg that is sitting too far up in their bellys as far as i'm concerned. The eggs are about an inch or maybe a little less then that for their anal openings. Is this a Problem? If so what could cause this? Could it be stress from being with the male too long? Thank you for any help you can give me.

The egg will move down when the time is right. If they're both low, they'd both get stuck. This way, one can come out, then the other.
