I started my womas really late this year, and wasn't sure if they were going to go. From the looks of these pics I'd say I'll have some eggs in about 75 days or so. The first one is a little hard to make out because the follicles are really large. In the second one the follicles aren't as big only 15mm, which is probably about halfway to ovulation. I say "probably", because I'm using ball python measurements as reference since their eggs are close in size.

Hi Eric:
Brett here, I was curious if you were concerned about xraying your womas at such an early stage of development. Im assuming that was an xray, are you not worried about possible congenital defects as part of the xray process? If its not an xray but ultrasound do you have any concerns there either? Just curious.
Cheers
Brett

Brett,
It's an ultrasound. I know several breeders who have been using them for years with no ill effects. I just got my unit a little over a month ago, and it is the coolest toy I have. I'm using it mostly for the balls, but I wanted to check these girls to see if I missed them. I'm going to keep track of their development for future reference.

Hi Erik, Cool, I thought maybe it was an U>S> but wasnt sure. So can I bring my beadeds over to your place and borrow your machine for about an hour????LOL I believe I have some girls that may be ready to breed but need to check.

Give me a buzz
