I have NO idea if that has anything to do with possible breeding/follicles/eggs.
Maja, my big Bumblebee female has been locking up with my male off an on since last December.
I have never observed a ovulation. Once I thought I saw one, but most people said it didn't really look like one. Could have missed it, though.
She did the water bowl wrapping, hanging out in the cold area, hanging out in the warm area and she has been refusing food for about 3 or 4 weeks now. She has also not locked up with the male last time I tried (as I know of).
Then she shed about 5 days ago.
Now she is driving me batty. She is suddenly RESTLESS. But she doesn't want food. She has fresh water and everything else is on the up and up. The temps and humidity are perfect and as they always have been. The other snakes in the rack act "normal".
I'm not even sure that she has follicles or eggs. And about 3 weeks ago I had the scare with the loose probe and the temps going to high. All the snakes "seemed" fine then, they still do, aside from her weirdness. Because of the heat scare I don't even know if that may have destroyed any follicles that were there?
Anyway, has anyone ever had a gravid BP female acting restless ? She acts like she wants out of the tub. But when I open it, she just hangs around. I have double, tripple and quadruple checked all temps and everything. I did try feeding (no go)
I just put the male back with her to see if that is what she wants, lol.
