When after they mate do you notice the female ovulate or swell up. how long after exactly and how long does it last because my 3 female mojaves have been being bread by my male mojave and i dont want them to lay before i get the incubator ready. I know they go through a pre lay shed, and 2 of my females are shedding now and im not sure if its a prelay or just a regular shed. how can i tell if they are pregnant, and please only people with experience answer this, i dont wanna mess up with this im trying to produce lucy's and i dont want to loose any eggs.... thank you very much
