    Possibly building?

    I have one of my females who I was pairing with a male from February to May. They locked 5 times total, I never saw any behavior that would lead me to believe she was building or gravid so I stopped pairing and thought I would just give it another shot this coming season. She went into shed on the 17th and shed on the 24th then I found her wrapped around her water bowl that same night. I went to offer her food on the 25th and she flat out refused after destroying anything that she could. Is it possible she is nearing ovulation and is starting to refuse food? Here is a pic of her from 7/24:

    Very well could be that she has her own calendar. Given her feeding, shed, and bowl wrapping, it all lines up that she would be building now.

    I haven’t seen her bowl wrapping since that pic, but I’ve seen her hanging around the cool side. Should I keep offering every week or should I push it to two weeks?
