Ovulatory and pre lay shed cycles
I have one female that has me guessing. Last year I lost her first clutch because I didn't have her lay bin in her tub. She laid the eggs on the hot side of her tub, needless to say that they dried out pretty quick. That being said, she never had a pre lay shed to let me know she was ready. Luckily for me she double clutched and had a pre lay shed.
Fast forward to this year and she never had an ovulatory shed. I decided to put a male in with her since my other females had already shed and had already been bred. Now that she is gravid, she decided to shed. So, her first shed this year will be her pre lay shed.
Anyone else experience anything like this??
