Can anyone tell me how long she will be in heat for? |
Heat cycle:
1. First week jComing in / 7 days....vaginal area pink and swollen
2. Second week - In / 7 days.....Showing Color
3. Third week - Coming out / 7 days ...... Breeding time will stand for a male and time of ovulation.....breeding time is usually on the 10th, 12 and 14th from the first day of showing color.......however, every girl is different. Breeding day is not when the girl concieves....The ova (eggs) are ready to be fetilized as they reach the uterus and break down if not fertilized within forty-eigh hours. The male sperm live up to 7 days.
However, since each girl's fertile time is different it is best to keep your girl from males for about 4 weeks.....better safe than sorry.
Personality wise, you do see your girls become more cuddly, loving....I call it losing their minds....Some girls take a bit longer than 3 weeks for their hormones to get back to normal. So, their different behavior can last up to 6 weeks.
