    I palpated her several times this season and felt 6 follicles, so we are hoping for 6 good eggs! Hopefully she doesn't make us wait too much longer! :please:

    HAHA! Thanks guys/girls! Still nothing this morning and she looks even more swollen and miserable! I also noticed she peed over night. Could this be due to possible contractions? We really hope to see eggs this weekend! :please:

    She was paired to a Pastel Het Ghost and a Mojave. I'm hoping for some female Pastel PH Ghost babies!

    She's enormous. Shell be blowing soon for you. Poor baby looks miserable. I hope she gives you great babies!

    I feel your pain. I'm waiting on a few like that. A couple days before laying you'll see her trying to push the eggs around in her belly by folding herself and then shell do a perfect coil with her tail in the middle.

    Re: She ready to blow!
    Do you think she is egg-bound? When does that become a possibility?

    Good luck! Hopefully she lays soon.

    I'm not too worried yet, just getting impatient! I think another week and I will start freaking out! :please:

    No she's not egg bound. She's just not ready. Sometimes They dont follow the same schedule. Shell lay in good time.

    Re: She ready to blow!
    Should I be concerned yet? She's close to two weeks overdue and nothing yet. I did catch her laying inverted this morning? Could this be a good sign? I really wish her and I would have read the same books! :colbert:

    My girls both laid ~38 days after their post-ovy sheds, so I wouldn't be too worried just yet. Of course, that's easy for me to say now - I was going crazy at the time! :)

    We're sitting at 41 days POS as of now. If this wasn't my first clutch, I may be more relaxed about it. I check every morning like a little kid at christmas time and every morning I find that Santa didn't come! :P

    70 days POS!!! Wow! I would have gone crazy! Were the eggs ok?

    I have been keeping a thermometer probe in her enclosure from the time she ovulated and it has been reading between 88-92 my T-stat is a Ranco, so there is a bit of fluctuation.

    Same thing happend to me last year. My big girl laid 62 days POS, when I pulled her out she felt cold and when I check i found a connection broke on her stripe in the rack. She laid 12 eggs all with veins, but each slowly went bad except 2 that hatched out fine.

    No the eggs were all infertile save for one and that baby hatched out kinked..

    That's too bad. My temps seem to be in line, but I will re-check everything when I get home from work. Thanks for the advice.

    Thanks guys! These next two months are gonna be a killer waiting for them to hatch! At least I have another clutch to look forward to in about three weeks. That should help keep my mind off of things.
