Heya..

Just wondering a few curiosity question..

How late have some of your jungles ovulated? Just asking as one of my pair is still breeding now and I have an other laying inverted with just a bit over a week to go..

As well How many days is there on average from preshed to egg deposition .. I am guessing around 24 or so days .. but this is my first year breeding jungles..

Any tid bits on jungle breeding would be nice too .. defently lots of fun ..

PLS to egg deposition is 20-30+ days. I usually get 25-28 days. Don't think I've ever fallen out of that range.

Late ovulations? Well I had eggs laid April 27th. That was my latest. If they are going to ovulate, it better be soon, because you have 20 days after ovulation to pre-lay shed, then another 25+ days after that to egg deposition.

Of course they can go at any time, but I would say that the chances of fertile eggs decrease after a certain time. What that time is, I don't know.
