is this an ovulation?

this is my first year breeding...I have a male pastel and a cinny that I have been pairing up with two normal females for the last couple of months...anyhow one has been really puffed up lately and on the 6th I took these pics of her which I believe is an ovulation! it was football shaped swell in her belly and raised almost not touching the bottom of the tub. it has gone back down and now shes curled and has her belly turned upward...I'll try to get some pics of that up later...so what should I expect now? do I stop putting my males in with her? I put one in yesterday just to see what would happen and they both stayed seperate when before he would court and lock up with her.http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/SANY0104.jpghttp://i987.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/SANY0102.jpg

Looks like an ovulation to me, could be building though.


I'd put a male in with her again just to be sure....

agree 100%

thanks!...I just put one in...we'll see what happens..

looks like one to me. it looks like you caught her right at the start or finish of one. watch her closely the next few hours/days. the real teller will be if she starts to go into shed in a week or so.

awsome... how many grams is she??

good luck man I hope it all works out for you.

thanks everyone!...I check on her several times a day since she's been locking up. I weighed her a month ago and she was 2700 grams...those pics were taken on the 6th..she was locked up with a male 2-3 days prior to that and is locked up again right now.

One trick to tell for sure if it's an ovulation is to check the belly scales right near the vent. They will be sucked in and kind of creased down the center.

Looks good to me :gj:
