Hey Ralph

i do have an important question!

He said he measured the female on the 16th, but 16th December?

So did the follicels grow 3mm in about two weeks?

That would be very interesting to know.

Maybe you can ask Kevin about that, if something is known how fast the follicel growth is?

Thanks in advance!

What are the settings you are using for the scan - 7.5mhz? at what depth is the scanner set?

What does a follicle feel like when its about to ovulate? when you palpate is it gonna feel like a marble or a quarter etc.?

This is why I have my stuff ultrasounded. Unless your snake is on empty, manual palpation can be difficult, and you also cannot truly discern the current size your follicles are. Ultrasound is the bees knees!!!! Fortunately I have a friend with ultrasound, because a good machine is very pricey, but worth every penny!!!

Ralph I love this Vid it was so helpful for the breeders that are thinking about getting tools like the ultrasound.
