It has been at least 4 months since female was with male, she had a clutch yesterday. Why did it take so long? Back in February-March when I thought she was gravid; she soaked in waterdish almost daily for 2 months straight.I gave up thinking she was gravid until recently when I saw her laying belly up. I thought no way after 4-5 months she's gonna lay eggs, needless to say this was a pleasant surprise.
Can anyone explain this to me?
Thank you
