    OVULATION! Finally!

    I've been waiting for this female to ovulate FOREVER! I had given up all hope after her not being with a male in almost 3 months, and then BAM! She's a buildin.

    Re: OVULATION! Finally!

    Just some food for thought...I see people do this all the time & it makes me wonder , but...

    When a female snake is building follicles and/or ovulating, the last thing she probably wants is to be dangled in the air & moved around for a bunch of photos. The entire reproductive process is one we should strive to make as stress-free for the snakes as possible.

    Open the cage, take a picture, close the cage. Be nice to that female so she'll be nice to you!!!!
