What do you see?

[AerialArtist]

First of all, I just got home and see that I need to change her water Secondly, is anyone else seeing lumps or is it just me? My girl has been bowl-wrapping and soaking on and off since I started pairing her in October. She shed and went off feed mid-December and has been parked on the cool side since. She seems uncomfortable being touched lately and flicks anyone away, including my male pastel, however she was still locking with him their last pairing(Christmas).Lastly, forgive my noob questions, I'm a little excited

I'm in that same boat SIR or MA'Am so i'm going to wait to see what others say, my females latest lock was last night... Hope she is what you think she is SIR or MA'AM..

All the "symptoms" you describe are a good sign that you´re on track. Just keep waiting the ovulation, she is gonna be building for a while, on the cool side, around the water bowl.

Looks like she may be trying to build.
Good luck to you.

Like everyone else said, she looks and sounds like she's building. You may want to get a round ceramic dog dish for a water bowl so she can better wrap and get more of her body surface in contact with the bowl. Get a bowl as big as you can but not so big that she cant fit between the bowl and the sides of her tub and keep the water level up a bit so it can conduct more of the heat from her body when she wraps. Make sure to check on her every day as an Ovulation only lasts about 24 hours and you don't want to miss it. However, once you see it, it is unmistakable because she will look like she's eaten something larger than you have ever given her and it will be in the bottom third of her body. Best of luck and I look forward to pics of baby worms later this year.

Thanks for your thoughts. I had a feeling that was the case, but wanted some expert opinions. I'll pick up a new bowl for her today!

looks like she is building. nice girl by the way. Is she just a lemon blast? Hope you can get her a more powerful male to pair her next year .... Always feel that way when i have to pair a single gene male.... except if some one is willing to give away a Puzzle or sunset.... then i guess i will feel OK...

Thank you, she's a butter spinblast. Gorgeous girl with a great temperament. Love her! This is our first clutch(friend and I), and all we have for males right now is a normal, a champagne, and a pastel, so it's just the pastel this year. Lots of ideas for next season, plus our pastel banana clown boy that's coming.

Sidenote: I cleaned her tub last night and now she's parked on the heat.

UPDATE: I just realized she's glowing! I know it can be difficult to detect in brighter morphs, but I was looking back at older pictures of her and she's lightened right up the last few days. She's also been soaking constantly and is looking swollen in the middle. She's such a big girl, I'm unsure whether or not I can tell the difference between ovulation and her usual fat self, though lol.

Also, I mistakenly called her a butter spin blast in the last post. She's a butter spinner. Butter spin blast is a combo we're hoping for

I see eggs coming
