    2nd Pre Lay Shed

    My female Pastel had what I tought was her Prelay shed in Feb 25, today I was inspecting her and found her in blue. She hasn't eaten since Jan 26 and copulated with a male Pastel like 13 times since Nov. last year.

    Any ideas, or experinces in second prelay sheds.

    Thanks in advance,

    JC

    Re: 2nd Pre Lay Shed

    I have alot of experience in this matter..Just ask Robin or Deb..

    They only have one POS.. If she is shedding again then she didn't ovulate plain and simple.

    It could mean that she ovulated in between the last shed and this one, or that she will ovulate some time after this shed.

    If I remember correctly, Freakie Frog's female that he is referring to did finally lay a nice clutch of eggs.

    LOL she shed four times before she finally OVY! and did go on to lay 11 eggs but keep an eye on her catching the OVY is key to planning you incubation.

    JC, I would keep pairing her until you see an ovulation.
    Best of luck bro!

    Re: 2nd Pre Lay Shed

    Hi Raul, I stoped pairing them back in Feb because they stoped locking a few weeks in a row. I'm goint to try tomorrow just in case. I haven't witness an OV but also I could have missed it, anyway I'll keep you guys updated.
    Thanks!!!!
