This girl is confusing.....

First she stopped eating and was doing this.

Then she went into shed.

Then she shed.

Then 55 days later, no eggs and she is ovulating for real now.

The weird thing is that she was bowl wrapping in the beginning and I thought I just missed the ovy. Now I guess I will wait and see if she sheds again in the near future and start another count. :rolleye2:

They never do anything like you expect for them to do.

She locked up 4 times that I actually saw, and then stopped eating and locking for the last 65 days. She has been laying inverted for a day at a time for like 4 weeks on and off, I would have sore I missed the Ovy. Just thought it would be hard to miss since I check on my snakes 3 times a day.

I've actually seen a number of my snakes inverted basking when they were opaque, at all times of the year.

ALL girls are confusing... ;)

I'm pretty sure if she reabsorbed then she wouldn't be ovulating now. I just thought I missed it, when in fact it never happened. We need to find out how to communicate with these snakes, that would help a lot :D
