Gravid Twitching Burmese?

Hello everyone,
This will be my first Burmese clutch and I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced or heard of a Burmese twitching while they are gravid? I know they sometimes do that to thermo regulate the temperature of their eggs but was not sure if they also did that before they laid them for the same reason. She just starting doing it about a half hour ago and her whole body twitches about every thirty seconds or so. It has been 28 days since her post-ovulation shed.

Mine only twitched after the lay

It is normal, some do it some don't. If they do it prior to laying normally it is a sign they are pretty close.
Also keep an eye on them, because I had a friend last year who had one twitching for a week or so and he had no idea why she was doing it before laying, she had laid but it was a small clutch and he had no idea she was on eggs.

At 28 days though don't worry it is normal.

Yeah it was defiantly a sign she was getting close, she laid about 3 days later.
