Shes got follicles

Well I was checking on some of my snakes tonite, and I decided to check a couple of my females to see where they are at. Two of my females defintely have follicles:), Ralphy says that this the best time to have a male in there with the female. I counted 7 on one female, and I couldnt get an accurate count on the other. Hopefully the odds god is in my favor this season.:gj:

Hope everybody has a great breeding season, along with a safe and Happy Holidays!

she is getting ready to shed so I am guessing this is her pre lay shed:)

have you seen her ovulate yet?

if she hasnt ovulated yet then this shed wont be her pre-lay shed.

Im going to check her today to be sure, but she seems pretty lumped up, and she has all the signs saying its about that time. The other one with the follicles I think has awhile yet.

They shed a few times before they ovulate. Keep pairing them up.

How big are the follicles? Nickel sized? Quarter sized? Walnut sized?

I have a girl that just shed and is glowing like crazy. She has 7 or so nickel sized follicles. They still have to grow a bit before she ovulates.....
