Thumbs up Cal King laying eggs... *pics*

Rocky finally decided to lay her eggs. It's been 10 days since her pre egg-lay shed and I was starting to get a bit worried. Then again, I <u>ALWAYS</u> underestimate the time things will take!

She's squeezed out 3 eggs so far and I'd say she's got about 7 to go...


I'll post more pics as the day goes on.

She's one of the pairs I had posted earlier that I hadn't witnessed breeding... Shows what I know!

Thanks man!

I thought she might be done by lunch time so I checked on her and she had just laid the 10th egg and it looks like she has several more in her. She was REALLY distended this past week, maybe she'll have 20!

She's done!

Well about 8 hours later... she's done! It was a treat to be able to peek in on her every few hours and see it all happening.

14 nice leathery eggs in the oven... 250g



Now she's ready for some rest...




Thanks for looking guys!
