    She actually just shed last night/ this morning, I think I felt follicles? but im not sure... And the breeding chart that made me think she already ovyed is Markus Jaynes chart. It shows ovy before the pre-lay soak but i just wasnt sure if some balls would soak when not gravid as well.

    Yes, you're right on schedule. You would be feeling eggs now. Like I said before, 30 days you should see some eggs...

    Well its been well over 40 days since this female was soaking in her water bowl and shed... and no eggs so I dont know. She must have been just cooling or maybe just wanted to soak. Unless she could have reabsorbed her follicles (I did not see her ovy). She has still been breeding the same male so Im still hoping she goes.
