Well I thought I had seen an ovulation on my gal, but that was back in Feb so she would have laid by now and although she was heat seeking at very first she quickly started started showing more building behaviours and developed a nice roundness to her. I've kept pairing her since I wasn't 100% on that last ovulation (she's tricked me in the past) but since Feb she was showing no interest in the male and I didn't see any locks in months. However this morning I guess she changed her mind. So still hoping of an ovulation and eggs soon!

This is my one and only pairing/project at the moment so I do have my eggs in one basket so to speak. Next season I hope to have a pied het albino female ready for him see if I can prove out his albino side (he's 66% het albino) and get an albino piexl pied!

Best of luck with this pairing. That pixel pied boy has such a cool look to him.
 
this looks like a good sign! This is her pose after a day of being locked with the male.

Spilled a good deal of her water getting in this pose. :)

Have my fingers crossed for you.
Would be nice to see if the "Pixels" get passed on to 1st generation offspring.
Still love your Pixel Pied boy. :)
 
Alright....this time I'm sure I've got all the signs right. She is to due lay sometime middle of next week. Very excited! Incubator has been humming since....March.

I got home today around lunch time and although she hadn't really looked in the mood to lay today I checked in on Nibiru and she was all coiled up around her new clutch! Five *big* healthy looking eggs with nice strong veins. I really thought there were more in her than that, but she looks like a deflated tire so I'm confident they are all here. I'm so thrilled! Now for the sixty day wait! They are due in the area of September 11th so they will all be getting patriotic names.

I'm so excited! I've been waiting for this for six years and after losing her first clutch last year this one means all that much more to me. Wish me luck! This is my one and only clutch for the year, but next year I hope to have another female or two ready to pair up with him as well.

Here she is...now I can finally move her to a clean bin, I've left the urate because I haven't wanted to disturb her this past week.

that is so exciting! I hope the pixel pied look carries on in the offspring. Looking forward to seeing the results of the hatchlings :)
 
He has produced pixel patterned pieds for his previous owner so I'm hopefully he will do the same for me!

It's going to be a long two months!
 
Great news! Congratulations Lauren! :beer:
Looking forward to seeing what pops out of the eggs.
