Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Yeah I'd say that's for sure an ovy, at least if she hasn't eaten in the last few days lol. Congrats!
Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Well Ruf, I guess we were both fooled because this is definitely an Ovy. The other must have just been a day of large build. I feel bad for her today. She looks uncomfortably huge. Like an overstuffed sausage. Still excited for the outcome on this one.

Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Woke up this morning to a pre-lay shed. So we are officially on the countdown to eggs for this girl. My other girls aren't really showing signs of going and I'm beginning to think this may be the only clutch I get this go around. Stay tuned.
Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Day 29 post shed and it looks to be pretty eggs-citing! 4 out and it looks like she may drop as many as 8, which would be really nice for a first clutch. I'll update with the total once she's finished. Stay tuned.

Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Very exciting! Let us know the final egg count. Hopefully it's all a good clutch.
Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
I have to say I feel lucky already. This girl hatched Sept 1, 2017 and never went off feed. Her first clutch and she drops 10 eggs. For the moment they all appear viable. 10 chances at 1 in 16 probability. I'll happily take those odds. Sorry for the blurry photo. Now for the 60 + day wait.

I know, right? It's the largest clutch I have had to date, surprising considering it's a first clutch. She still weighed almost 1400 grams after laying.
Re: 2020 Breeding Season Plans
Well I have to say I am pretty excited with this clutch. I did lose 1 egg around week 3. It just molded up really bad. However, it looks like I have nothing to complain about. Even hit the 1/16 odds of catching a normal. I will start a new thread about these once they all crawl out. Thanks for looking and comin along for the ride.
