    Egg's Egg's Egg's Egg's!!!!

    I have been waiting for this day for the past three years!! Lily as been in my collection the longest ( she got me started on Royals again ) I bought her 6 years ago as a yearling weighing 400ish grams she never seemed to put weight on even though she pounded food like no tomorrow. She hovered around the 1500ish gram mark for a couple of years but she did hit the 1000gram wall before that though!

    Well I decided I would breed her Three years ago and no joy so I didn't think much of it I bred her again at the start of this year and repeatedly put the Male to her over the duration of a few months. I never saw her ovulate well I'm not 100% sure because she was 'building' which I thought was ovulation but everyone said it can't be because she is going to long ( Lasted around 3-4 days ) But the proof is in the pudding today

    From the start,

    It must be love


    Close up,



    Possible Ovulation, August 28th or there abouts.





    30th August,

    31st August just double checking with the male,

    6th October,





    Getting Closer on the 11th October,

    1st one out around 7:50am



    2nd Out,

    Thanks for reading I hope you enjoy.

    Congrat on your clutch
    Nice step by step pics
    Was she breed to cinnamon?
    How many eggs she laid?

    Thank you I like taking photos and its always good to have something to remember it all by ( I suffer with memory issues so photographs are great )

    She was bred a funky Cinnamon called George, Last count was 5 eggs but I think she's packing 7 but I have left her alone for now so I can give her a good couple of hours to finish and rest, Then its in the cooker they go and Lily gets a bath

    I always thought Ovy's were only 24-48 hours :S Which is why I thought it was building But everyone else did say that also.

    Thanks Doc

    Final Count was 8 eggs she was 2100ish grams before laying and now 1200 grams she looks ever so skinny now though but won't be long till shes feeding again and back up to her natural weight

    I couldn't resist taking a few photos for everyone elses enjoyment and for my personal records.









    This is her now I feel so sorry for her at the moment
