    Females Laying Upside down?

    My females have been linking a lot lately and I have started to notice they are wrpping their water bowls but a few of them I have seen laying completely upside down. Almost thought they were dead . Is this a good sign that they took?

    Also I was wondering about feeding. Ive always heard that females WILL NOT eat when gravid. Is this true? A Couple of my females that im almost positive are currently in ovulation ate for me last night so Im just wondering.

    Thanks.

    Laying upside down is a good sign! Well...as long as they're girls you're breeding this year. I've never seen any girls eat after an ovulation. Girls are different. I've had girls eat right up to ovulation, and some stop a couple months before. Good luck with your season!

    Definitely a good sign. Most females will stop eating after the ovulate. I have heard of some eating small meals throughout the entire process. My girls are not interested in eating once they have ovulated.

    Not sure if they have ovulated, I have been checking everyday but I have just noticed them laying upside down.

    About three of my girls have been laying like this so I was curious. Two of the three continue to eat though.
