Cinnamon Ovulating AGAIN!

[Foschi Exotic Serpents]

Maybe the ball gods really do want me to get a solid black snake before 2011.. This girl laid eggs in March. Immediately started eating again and got huge right away. I check in on her tonight and this is what I see?? So I put the male in with her again just in case she is ovulating. Normally I would not do this but this girl is huge and has not stopped eating so I figure what the heck. Lets see what happens right?

We have had some very unusual weather patterns this year. Most of mine bred very early. Well now it has been raining non stop here for weeks. Extremely humid and muggy and today we were just under 100*. Maybe this is whats triggering the ovulation. Whatever it is I'm not complaining! It does seem a little low on her body but that is what her last ovulation looked like. Its slightly larger farther up her body too but you cant really see it in the photos. At this point I can only hope and pray.

Wow!

That female is giant!

I wish you good luck with getting Super Cinnamons, they're gorgeous snakes. Hopefully, in a few months, we'll see pictures of them

By the way, I love you're avatar.

That would be very cool but it looks like she just has to take a huge dump...good luck though!

I really don't think that they ovulate that low in the body.

Thats not an ovulation

Thats either her getting ready to poop....

Or what worries me....

Is since she stopped eating is MAYBE she had an egg leftover or has developed some kind of problem.

Keep an eye on her

I have had this happen before. The female was egg bound, and I did not know. Did you check her after she laid to make sure there was nothing left? I hope that is not the case with your girl. I pushed the egg out, and everything else that was built up came out. Pretty gross.

i agree it either a egg bound and a huge turd or a really huge turd ready to blow out..

Nah. After she laid she was quite sunken in like any other female that just laid. Its only 3 months before id start pairing them again anyway. No hurt in trying to get another early clutch from her. If it is a dump she needs to take it would be the biggest ever lol. If they did happen to lock she would retain the sperm anyway. Im guessing my early females will ovulate early again anyway due to the weather. It just now got really hot and humid here. I wouldn't need to fake it and keep the snake room hot and humid in the winter.

Sorry, but like everyone else said, that is not an ovulation. I bet you will be cleaning up a big mess in the morning. Also, when a snake is ovulating it's too late to pair them up. I bet if you handle her for a little while she will give you a present.

If she just laid in March then I would think this is too early to breed again! That poor girl needs a break!
