    Re: Question about timing during breeding

Whenever I went to check on them they were apart and on separate sides of the bin. My uncle said I should just leave him out because if she still wanted/needed to breed they would do it. She's just still laying on her side wrapped around the water, but I felt her side and to me it felt like four very obvious (and eggs shaped) bumps.
    If she is still bowl wrapping and on the cool side she has not ovulated, once female ovulate they seek the hot spot.

    Because you pair them does not mean that you will witness a lock every time especially if you disturb them to much, the bumps you are felling are likely follicles which get as big as golf bowls near ovulation.
