    Need some advice...
    This year, we tried to breed for the first time.
    And I want to tell/ask something...

    We had some succesfull locks between a female bumble and a male pinstripe enchi between end of January and begin of April.
    She ways 1600g.
    Last week, she ate 2 mice, after not eating for almost 3months and shedding.
    We've been told that there are some 'signs' to look for: bowlwrap, laying on the cold site,....
    But we're still waiting :(
    The female did do something else:

    Now the question is: Is this a posibility for this year? Or is this her choice?

    I am no expert but it sounds like she maybe still building. Invert laying is a good sign of good things to come. Keep offering her food at least once a week.

    How much does she weigh? A breeding size female should be able to eat at least small to medium size rats.

    Do you know how many times she has shed? I was told there are four shed cycles in the breeding period.

    Hope this helps a little.

    She looks as if she is building. Good sign that she is probably gonna give you eggs!
