Try comparing to a small(newborn size almost) rabbit.

That girl looks as if she is still a ways out from ovulation. She is probably laying the way she is cause the tub is a bit tight.

I have never gotten the "inside scoop", and I think that would make it easier for me to understand how the process works instead of just assuming the stork drops them off.
I know I'm not Dave, but, 24 to 48 hours. My guess is people miss it because they are not over-looking their animals daily or just confusing building and ovulation.
