    What day is it?

    So, if your BP lays eggs on May 1st, what day would today be? Do you count the day they're laid as day 1? or is it the next day, when they've had 24 hours....

    just curious...would today (may 4th) be day 3 or 4?

    My girl laid her eggs in the really early morning, so I counted the first as day one

    Hi,

    I count the day they are laid as day zero.

    That way I get to dance around and cheer without any of that pesky arithmetic getting in the way.

    I count the day they are laid as Day 0. After all, you aren't one day old until you have lived one whole day!

    I had a clutch laid on 5/1/11 and the due date is 6/25/11 self generated from my snake tracking software.
    Hope this helps!
