getting ready to lay...
Well, its been about 40-41 days since she had her pre-lay shed, and although its taken failry longer then the norm, i think she is about to lay.
Shes currently in a very akward position on her side ,and looks to be having what i would consider to be contractions in a snake.
Breathing heavily, etc...
So, although ive been saying tonight will be the night for the past two weeks, i really do think it will happen tonight. if not, hopefully tomorrow.
Heres to hoping that theres atleast one good egg.
Thanks for lookin,
GVG

thanks for all the crossed fingers guys!
So, she didn't lay last night or this morning, but i still have faith in this girl. I palpated her up tonight and theres definately a bunch of eggs (or slugs) in her...right up to the vent.
So although things are taking very long, i am still convinced she is going to go through with it without problems. However, since day 40, dystocia has been on my mind ever since.
Any signs other then the obvious i should look for in an egg bound female???
thanks,
grant vg
