Keep in mind that 27 to 35 days POS is an average, not all females are textbook and it when it's really important for you to know your animals and what to expect.

How far is the first egg from the cloaca? How is she currently, perfect coil with tail in or out?

I had females go 50 days POS.

Not to hijack this thread, but I have a female that is currently 46 days POS and hasn't laid yet. What exactly are you looking for when judging how far the first egg is from the cloaca and determining if they are egg bound? My female is laying in a perfect coil with the tail on the outside and has been doing so for at least a month. The first egg doesn't appear too close to the cloaca (maybe a couple inches away and she is ~1500 grams).
