Ovulation?
So, my pastel has been breeding my pewter since late December. In the words of Brad, she's been chewing hard, a small rat every 5 days since about Thanksgiving. Every time I've introduced the male, I've witnessed at least 1 copulation. This weekend I tried to feed on Friday and she refused. Then, Saturday we had a nice little low pressure front move through and I introduced my male, and she wasn't having any of that either. I just checked on here and saw this. I think it's an ovulation, but I'm not sure.

Here is a picture of her when her & the pastel first started breeding. So you can see how much lighter she is now.

What are y'alls thoughts on this?

Re: Ovulation?
1st pic I don't see anything, but 2nd pic I do. Not feeding is a good sign, good luck on your sterlings ^^

Re: Ovulation?
The 2nd pic was when I first checked her and that's what made me think she was going. Thanks for the good luck.

Re: Ovulation?
Second pic looks good to me. Just keep watching her over the next wek and see if you see any other signs. Good luck with the pair. That is a very nice pastel male BTW

Re: Ovulation?
Keep pairing up if she will accept it.
If not, you may be good to go.
Id keep an eye on her and see if you have a shed in the near future.
You may have just missed the bulk of the ovy

Re: Ovulation?
I'm gonna say no it's not, but, she looks close. This is just a guess though. Of course, your guess' will most likely be better than mine. A quick note, I haven't seen any of my females put such extreme bends in the area that the ovulation is taking place. They will normally put a bend right in front of the ovy and right behind it.

Re: Ovulation?
I didn't want to start another thread, so I'm jus going to bump this one.
I thought I caught an Ovy on Wednesday night, but wasn't 100% sure as it definitely wasn't the meat of it. I just palpated her and sure enough, there were 5 bumps the size of a small water balloon.
Now it's all up to the snake gods for all of them to be healthy eggs and for the odds gods to give me like 3.2 Sterlings:please::please::please::please:

Re: Ovulation?
Dylan, keep an eye on her they best way to tell is to just wait the 2 weeks out for the pre lay shed, then the FINAL countdown begins!!! Did you build your incubator yet? Can't wait to meet up again in 2 weeks!!!

Re: Ovulation?
I haven't built it yet, I need to order a T-Stat but that's about all that I need
