    Ultrasounds anyone???

    Anyone here use an ultrasound? If so how valuable are they, would you buy one again if yours broke? Im thinking about getting one in the future once I expand my collections, but im wondering how usefully they really are. I guess Im trying to see if their value equals to their cost. Thanks

    If you are breeding some high dollar stuff that warrants knowing when or if she is gravid....Then by all means, spend away! If I was you I would learn to palpate. That method works just fine. IMO I would rather spend $2000 on a killer morph.

    By the way, if you haven't found one yet...Here is a place you can get one.

    Im going to pick up a few more DH females and timing is everything with them. I want to be sure, rather then assume, when the time is right to put males with females. Id also like a better idea of :how many eggs, how far along they are, and if she did get gravid.

    With a growing collection, I want to make sure Im not pairing a male up with a female who isnt ready in the first place.

    P.s. Ive found similar Ultrasound machines on ebay from 1500-2500. samething minus the middleman.

    We have an Ultrasound machine and it was worth every penny in our opinion! If ours broke we would definently buy another one.
    Hope this helps

    Thanks... I read another post of yours saying how much you loved it. I was hoping youd respond! In your own opinion, how easy/difficult is it to use. And how effective has your season been since you starting using it.

    I was on Grants page too reading how it helped him get 16 clutches from one male (dh lavender clown i think)
