    How fast will she swell?

    If my female is gravid, how fast will she swell up? I mean is it a gradual thing or will it be like overnight? I can't find any info on this.

    Building will be incremental.
    Ovulation (after building) will be over-night.
    Final building will also be incremental, but faster after the ovulation.

    The only over-night swelling should be an ovulation, or if she recently fed. Omnomnom

    Re: How fast will she swell?

    Thankyou so much for this info. She has ben getting thicker for about 2 months now. I put both of my male BPs in with her and watched to see what would happen. One of the males started tickling her with his spurs so I pulled the other male out. They have locked up multiple times over the last week. I have lowered the temp in her enclosure. How long should I wait before I try warming her back up?

    I have been pairing them up for about 2 weeks now. However, for the last 4 days he has absolutly no interest in her. I'm wondering if he has completed his job. Can anybody comment?
