    my inexperienced eyes can't tell if this is an ovulation

    I was hoping some of you with more BP experience could give me your opinions.

    Here she is today:









    And here are 2 pics of her locked up in September; she looks quite lumpy to me, but could have just been the angles.





    She was off feed for about 3 months, but in the last few she's been gobbling rats up left right and center. But when I picked her up today she felt a lot more firm and swollen, but it could just be wishful thinking.

    Im not very experienced but looks like an ovy to me.

    Also, looks like a color difference in the ovy shots vs the lock shots. Like maybe she had a glow in the lock shots.

    Should have mentioned those photos were taken with 2 different cameras, so it's hard to say!

    The ones from today were taken with this crappy lil point and shoot I just picked up. It takes alright photos, but the white balance was off and I had to correct the blue tinge.

    Looks like building to me. No tail suck and there isnt a lot of swelling. Hold out for that "I just ate a football" look.

    You don't doubt when she ovulates...it's like she has eaten a rugby ball after a long time of non feeding.
