    double shed after ovy?

    So I caught what looked like the tail end of my mojos ovy, I thought she was still building, but she shed about 3 wks after, give or take a few days, I'd have to check my records for the specific day of the time I noted the swell. So I'm assuming it was the tail end of her ovy. She has since shed again. And prior to these last 2 sheds, she did what I assumed was her pre-ovy shed.

    According to all the tell tail signs (ridge back, tight perfect coil on hot spot, egg adjusting and restless) and according to my calendar she's due to pop any day now. I feel 5 big eggs and they even feel like they have moved further down.

    The puzzling thing is.. she shed twice?? Like I said according to the dates and her behavior, I expect eggs any time now. I'm just wondering if anyone's heard of a female shedding twice after ovy?

    I had the same exact thing happen with my female albino this year. I was worried she was going to slug out. About 10 days later she laid 5 nice eggs. If you feel the eggs and can kind of see the bulges when you hold her up you are good to go so I would not worry too much.
