Still nothing....

Gahh, i've been waiting on a girl to ovulate for abut now, and still nothing.... I hate trying to be patient lol. The more frustrating part is that one of my other girls is ovulating and I didn't haveany plans onbreeding her this season....

I guess the papertowel trick needs a little more time to work it's wonder....anyone else having any issues this season?

don't you have plenty more time lol i think so try letting them see each other for a cupple mins a day that might help if not just keep trying the paper towl trick

 

[robin]

i have never used the paper towel "trick" before and everyone seems to ovulate just fine

Last year, only one of my six females ovulated....this year all but one ovulated....did the paper towel trick for the remaining female....all good now :main_yes:

You just have to be patient, make sure that the paper towel is in the male's enclosure long enough for him to leave plenty of scent and then place it in with the female and wait for signs that she is ovulating.

one possible reason why some of your females did not ovulate is because of where you are located geographically. i bet it's not easy breeding reptiles up in alaska!

The flip side to this is that I have geckos that are in the 40 gram range that I want to grow and breed in a few months but now I cant because they wont eat... I probably wont be able to breed them until next year... unless I breed small
