    Will Females Breed After Ovulation?

    I have a 1800gram female I recently bought. I've been pairing her with my male for the last month and they've locked 3 times now. Will the girl continue to breed after ovulation? Today after I took the male out after they successfully locked I noticed she is in shed. Could this be a pre-lay shed? Or would she refuse him if she had already ovulated?

    Thank you!

    Mine don't generally lock after ovulation so she is probably still in the building stage.

    So they will breed even after ovulation? It's just not that common?

    Thanks, I can't find another thread talking about it.

    Well I've never seen it happen but do not know for sure it never happens is closer to what I meant.

    Some people mistake building for ovulation and end up with undesired results. Pair until you're sure of ovulation or you see eggs
