I haven't seen anything, but i've left the room everytime when males are put with her.

When i put another male in... he was lined up tail to tail with her ... then i left the room... when i came down in the morning they were in different sides of the bin.

So i have no idea

Hi,

What kind of substrate are you using?

Just wondered if it would show any trails or smears or anything.

its a dirt mix, with cypress mulch.... I put this in just in case she was gravid

Hi,

Hmm so that wouldn't show anything likely then. :(

Have you tried palpating her?

Is she sitting on one side of the tank more than the other?

Palpating her ? What is that... haha stupid question i know.. but i've never ever heard of that.

right now she is sitting beside the water dish... usually she'll move around.. but these last two days she's only been on the one side.

Hi,

It's just the name for trying to feel the developing follicles inside her. :)

Ralph davis has a nice video showing him doing it;

YouTube - Pet Project 08 - part 1 ( follicles )

So would you say she is mainly staying on the cool side of the cage?


dr del

i just did a temp check on the side she's on and its around 88... Room * ambient * temps are sitting around 86, my reptile room stays warm.

So i would say she's on the warm side...

She is in a tub ontop of one of my racks that holds my tanks... So the other side is sitting around 86

Thanks for the video, i'll check it out! :)

Should i keep putting a male with her or should i stop it all together and prepair a lay box ? do you think she's gravid... i'll have to check to see if i feel anything in the morning, i don't want to bug her too much, just in case
