Re: What stage is she in??
P.S. I'll try to get some full-body & "belly shots" when I have someone around to help... she's simply too big for me to take photos while holding her. Oh, and I just threw Toby back in her tub, in case she is building follicles. ;)
Re: What stage is she in??
Oops - I meant to say (in my first post) that I hadn't seen any signs of follicle development... not ovulation. :D
Re: What stage is she in??
Well lolo...I have no idea since I am not there yet...only have youngsters but I can say....wow :O she is HUGE. I am surprised she can even fit in her hide. Hope you got some eggs in there!! :gj:
Re: What stage is she in??
Those pics don't really tell much. When she's ovulating, you'll know. This is a great page on what to look for: http://www.ballpython.ca/gallery/breeding.html
Re: What stage is she in??
I don't think she's close to ovulating just from what I can see. A dark snake like her - you should notice a very definite "glow" before she ovulates. Here's an example for you.
Believe it or not - same snake:
Normal coloration:

Wowzers! Thanks for the "glow" pictures! The "glow" pictures I've seen up until now didn't really look all that different. Now I know what to look for! :D
Re: What stage is she in??
Here is an ovulation. You can also see this normal girl looks light like a fire when she is glowing. This means eggs are on the way;)

Holy ovulation, Batman!!! O.O
Re: What stage is she in??
Thanks all... I know she's not in the ovulation stage yet, but was thinking she could be building follicles right now. Does she look swollen at all, or did I just feed her too much? :D
Re: What stage is she in??
This ovulation was easy to spot...just look for the "X" :D

Re: What stage is she in??
She could be building. Just keep pairing them for now.
