View Full Version : Moody Moody Moody!
My normally docile Roxy has become satan's spawn! I have experienced a mood swing with a gravid burm before, but it wasn't this extreme. She starts hissing at me as soon as I open the cage and if I touch her, she immediately puts her neck in a nice "S" position while hissing with her tongue straight up and still. It's pretty damned intimidating! Taking eggs from this one is going to be fun.:boxing:
LOL,, Sometimes being the Egg thief isn't the greatest Job.
Good luck with her.

Good luck bro. I.m in the same boat. I have 2 gravid girls & my biggest girl is usually a big babbydoll. But now she is all blowed up & hissing (extremely) loud soon as you crack open the door & she means business. So retrieving her eggs is going yo be a trick Exspecially since this is my first time breeding:eek:
There's a few things you can do to get started retrieving the eggs(what I do anyways). But alot of it is going with the flow. Taking what is given and reacting to it. Definately have a second set of hands. Not for your safety but for the eggs,LOL!
I agree with Jim 100% on an extra set of hands.. Burm/Retic. what ever.
That Female which is gotten feisty, LOL Wants her Eggs safe. So, to her you just became the Enemy :eek:
1 thing, Just make sure the extra hands aren't Scared..LMAO!!!!
