    breeding calendar
    I was just wondering if anyone knows or if there is any website that specifies

    the entire gravid process. I'm talking like average time from lock to ovulation,

    then time from ovy to pre lay shed, from pre lay to glow or vice versa, from

    glow/shed to eggs then eggs to pip. I really did try researching but couldnt

    find nothing that would say the answer I am looking for. I have a possible

    gravid pastel and was just curious so it could help me find out when eggs are

    possible gonna arrive once I spot ovy or glow.

    I found this to be pretty helpful.
    Near the bottom is what I think you're looking for.

    Ovulation to pre-lay shed takes on average 14 days

    Pre-lay shed to egg laying takes on average 27 to 35 days

    Those are average it can be shorter it can be longer for example I have a female who is 48 days POS right now.

    Did you witness an ovulation?

    I've always used the Marcus Jayne calendar above for my reference, and it is definitely a solid schedule. But knowing Justin, I'd recommend going with his. Plus, in my experience, I know that Marcus and his wife know there stuff, but unless it involves whiskey, the U.S. is usually slightly ahead of the Canadian curve. :rofl:

    no not yet. But about 2 weeks ago I felt around 5 small marble sized bumps 2/3rd the way down her body and today I checked again to make sure if they are follicles or not and this time they were bigger, just under the size of a golf ball.
