Feeding while gravid

[twistedtails]

If your snake is still eating she in most likely not gravid. I did not want to accept this fact with my first breeding earlier this year either. One of my girls was giving me all the signs you listed. I continued to feed, until one day she refused. Three weeks later she ovulated. If you girl is eating agressively she is probably still building follicles. I would continue to feed if I were you. You might be experiencing a pre ovulation shed. Just be patient, it pays.

It seems way too soon to be signs of her being gravid. I would continue feeding until you see definite signs of her ovulating.

More than likely she will refuse food far before then anyway.

Yes I keep trying to tell myself that shes not gravid.Just because its easier to be surprised instead of dissapointed!

I understand the signs of being gravid could be coincidental but then I think about two things.
1.She has always been a very good eater(Has never refused a meal)
2.These 2 were locking up for 24 hours every time I introduced them and now they don't lock at all.

So heres my question,At what point do females begin refusing a male/does he lose interest in her?

I have a het Albino girl, proven breeder goes like clockwork & she hooked up multiple times with my Homozygous Albino male... but she's still feeding. Just when you think you got them figured out.
