Re: 90% sure shes gravid
follicles can be resorbed so if you think the damage is done it may possibly be reversed. if the ovulated on the other hand then the eggs are coming either way. if shes receptive and developing follicles and not overweight then the risk of her becoming egg bound is most likely little.

Yeah I was one of those threads :(. Everything's good though.

Re: 90% sure shes gravid
I wouldn't waste breeding opportunities with an albino at this point. Since there have already been two other morphs bred to her, you won't ever be able to say for sure if the babies are het albino or not. I mean...it won't hurt....just no matter what you do, when you describe the babies, you can't call them definite hets. You'd have to say, "Well, the daddy MIGHT have been an albino, but I really don't know." (Call Jerry Springer? :rofl: )
If it were me, I'd just keep with the male pastel...or a spider if I had one. Whatever you do though, good luck with it.

Re: 90% sure shes gravid
As you guys know this was a unplanned breed, turned planned. Well on
Monday I am going to pick up an incubator I think will do the trick for just this
one clutch. But like I said unplanned turned planned so I don't have any money
saved up for a bator. So... I am going to get that bator on Monday, but was
just curious if anyone has any suggestions of cheap effective incubators.
haven't had luck finding any except the one I am getting, just want a bit more
of a variety to choose from. Keep in mind, it's just for this one clutch, then
when I decide to start trying to breed I will upgrade.

Re: 90% sure shes gravid
Hi,
I would check out the DIY incubators. The only really expensive bit you need is the thermostat - and most people don't trust the ones that come with really cheap production incubators like the hovabator anyway. :)
Then all you need is a heater of some description and an insulated box to keep it in.
