Jeff man you making feel sick! Every time I check mine, nothing. I'm starting to get discouraged. Of the 4 females I paired up I caught two copulations. Since then I've caught maybe one ovulation. I have my doubts though because no one has shifted over to the heat yet.
Time will tell I guess,

Its still WAY early Trev. The only thing I can suggest, is to feed the crap out of the females. Mine ate like crazy in November and December, and the ones that ate good are going to give eggs. They NEED the body weight/fat. Without it, they just sit there and look back at you.
And remember, the copulate like MAD! each of my females have been "tail wrapped" and copulated at least 6-8 times. Each time lasting at least 4 hours, and sometimes up to 2 days.
Best of luck. Keep at it. Humidity should be getting higher by now as well. I spray mine all the time now.

Well humidity is fine, around 60-65. Feeding is what is going to hurt me. They aren't interested in anything I offer.
Grrr!

Yeah, if they don't eat its awful hard for them to get the reserves to produce eggs.
BP's are crazy though. They'll start eating like mad in April and May and still throw eggs in June and July. They are nuts like that. But as the time goes on, the odds get worse. April and May are premo months for eggs.

And if you NEED to go eggs, try live rats. It sucks, but they will take them. Sometimes its the only way.
