I've heard of that too, but he did seem interested but i just never seen them locked at all.


When was the first measurement taken? How long before the second? I have a female that gained about 50g in two to three weeks while she was off feed, probably due to water intake. Maybe at least some of the weight can be explained by that.

Month 1/2 ago it was taken. And then 2 weeks ago i did the second, so it was a good amount of time between the two.

Maybe. So The whole laying inverted doesn't mean anything .

I have to agree. Maybe she ended up reabsorbing her follicles. If she's not locking and is eating again, I think she is done for the season. If she does end up laying a clutch somehow, great. I don't think there's much you can do at this point.

I was told by another breeder to throw a male back in with her because she could have Follicles... but i don't know if that's so safe.

I'm just happy that she's eating again, that is all that really matters to me.

If she throws me some eggs! cool! if not, there is always next year!

Thanks guys
