So I unsure if I will get eggs from some of my females this year. They are still locking up but there seems to be a lack of follicle growth. Does this mean I'm still ok?
Keep pairing until you see the ovy! Some of my females just recently (in the last two weeks) started glowing and building. I probably won't see eggs from them for another couple months.
As others have said it's still early and just keep pairing.
We've only had 4 Ovy's and 1 clutch layed so far. And have plenty of girls still to go.
We are actually going to just start pairing one female this week.
Other than that, ee have 7 other females all breeding this year, and so far NOTHING. Locking, yes, but most have small follicles. THey're a long ways off. Oddly enough, the girl with the biggest follicles is the 4 year old het. Pied virgin who would only eat live mice for the first 3 years of her life.
It's gonna be a late season for us!
So don't be too surprised or discouraged if you're still just plugging away with not a lot happening.
