    The shed is just a normal shed. It usually happens about 2 weeks after ovulation. Egg laying is about 30 days after the shed.

    Best of luck with your eggs!

    Yes they do, than about 30 days later they will lay eggs.

    Did you witness an ovulation 10 to 14 days ago?

    Promise you waiting for this shed and into the laying will be like trying to watch water boil! But it will eventually happen. And congrats!!
