Hello
Couple of important Qs.

If a female has ovulated, is it possible for her to still end up in a lock with a male? I am worrying I have missed ovulation and a few days ago she had a definite lock which I think would not happen if she had ovulated, hence question????????


Will a female who has ovulated carry on feeding?
They are at normal temps and pounding rats. In fact just weighed my het albino female(one i am worried I missed ovulation) and she is 2163 grms. In december she was 1500?
If the answer is no 2 the Qs I can relax and keep looking for ovulation.

Thanks in advance
mike

Yes, mating is possible, but to late.

Never in my experience.

she is still feeding so will take it that ovulation has not yet happened.
Hopefully soon.
