    Waiting on eggs

    One of my girls had her prelay shed February 13th and today is March 16th so its 3 days past "due date". How long can they go before they lay? Picture is her a week ago and you can see the eggs building.

    While the average is 30 days POS I have had females here and there go 50 days POS list like I had some go 27 days POS.

    They don't all go by the book.

    I know all dont go 30 days exact that's why I said "due date" but I was just curious how long she could go. But damn 50 days? I hope I dont have to wait that long

    It definitely depends on a few factors, the animal itself, tempertures etc, I would say on average the vast majority of my females do not go past 35/37 days POS

    When your female lays in a perfect coil, tail in it will be imminent usually the next 24/36 hours.

    Like the tail in the center? She has been sitting in a coil for like a month but her tail is usually on the outside
