                | oakleyman18 | Posted - 15/03/2011 : 21:33:28 Just a quick question, is there ALWAYS a pre-lay shed? As in, should I wait for a pre-lay shed before putting in a moss box and prepping the incubator? I don't want to wake up one morning and find eggs when I'm not ready!

  one of my breeding females lays within hours of her pre-natal shed but i think the 'average' is a week
