It was a shot in the dark and it is very late but I brought my big female normal to my friend yesterday. He plans to pair her with his mojave, spider, and pastel and we are splitting the babies in a fair way (you pick one, i pick one.) Since yesterday he has confirmed three locks with the mojave. I have so many questions but the most important, how long does it usually take from the first confirmed lock to when they finally lay eggs? It seems like it will probably take about four months, since he started pairing his albino in November and she's only just laid her eggs. As of yesterday she is up to 1700g empty and had gained a whole 100 grams in just 10 days. Also as of yesterday she is up to 1950g full. By the time she's gravid she will most likely be 2000g+ and I am hoping for a big clutch. I'm so excited and can't wait for my first clutch! One thing I would like to do is to build my own incubator so I can have her and the eggs at my own house and go through the whole process. So if anyone wants to tell me how to build a successful incubator for cheap I would appreciate it![]()
