I am attempting to breed my BD. Elly Mae was hit on by Jethro several time. They have been separated for about 10 days.
Yesterday, she pooped but apart from the poop (at least 4 inches) was the urate but also a yellow/gold plug. It looked like a sperm plug from pictures.
Further research suggest that she's "knocked up" (their words). Do you think she's pregnant?
When I was researching and came back my wife had cleaned the tank and given the specimen to the Sewerage & Water Board, down the toilet.
So, no pictures obtained.
Thanks for any reply's.

Please post a pic of Elly mae flat surface vent towards camera tail in the air- you do not want to put two males together by accident - females do not have sperm plugs as far as I know
I agree with Karrieree, females don't get the plugs. Also if the male had plugs that big he probably would have needed assistance to remove them, i doubt it would have ended up inside the female.
I love the names btw . (It kindda shows out age though )
She's definitely a female, 2years old. Bought her from a full time breeder I bought (3) other BD. Her first clutch she had 28 eggs of which 26 lived. It must be the color in some of the vegetables. She likes butternut squash. She's getting round and gained over 40kg last week. But no eggs visible or felt yet.

Join a health club and get in routine now at a young age so your joints stay lubricated. You're going to wake up with pain when you get older but at least you wake up.
I have elderly 80+years in my classes but also 20 year older.. We burn over 1000 calorie and ride 15-17 miles in an hour
Thanks for everyone's reply...
