    Going to lay soon?

    I have this het albino girl I've been pairing this year. She shed around July 1. I think she ovulated around the 13th. And then she shed again on the 31st (30 days later.) since she has been in a nice coil on the warm end most of the time until tonight when I found her like this on the warm end. I can't get a male to lock any more with her. Does she look like she is starting to position her eggs now? If I'm correct about the other stuff and Her last shed was a post ovation, she should be laying eggs in the next week or so ?

    My girl was twisting into a pretzel two days before she laid. She was restless. Not sure if that helps you.

    I'd say so - looks like pre-lay behavior. I'm surprised you were still introducing males that far along. Good luck brother!

    Her spine is showing more pronounced and she keeps rolling on her side and moving around so I would say she's restless. I have the incubator fired up so we are ready

    Sounds like she will lay eggs within a week. Could be today or anytime within the week.

    Good luck.

    If you hold her and let her lower half drape down you should see lumps in her belly.

    I came home today and she is again in a perfect coil. I will keep everyone updated. From everything I've read prior to this season, I'm expecting eggs within the week

    That's a pretty odd time frame, I've never had a female ovulate 12 days after shedding.
    That said she certainly looks gravid.

    She has been just chilling In her perfect coil and her spine is really ridging. I think I can see 7-8 lumps in her. I am so anxious waiting so I can wait anxiously again once she lays :p
