    Re: Breeding Questions

    From what I understand you keep pairing until you see an ovulation. She will look huge about 2/3 down her body and appear to be miserable. That means you know the eggs have to fertilized and you are gonna get some eggs. Whether they'll be viable eggs is just a 'wait n see'. This link might help you.

    Like they said, keep pairing until they won't or she ovulates. Get that incubator ready too.

    That's why she's aggressive, she's telling you something.

    She's saying FEED ME
