Cool Found some more Diamond eggs in the "closet" today

I knew this girl was due here soon & sure enough today she was sitting colied around a couple dozen eggs.
She has at least a couple eggs left to go as well.
Despite being all coiled nice on the clutch (that judging by their "dry" feel were likely laid last night), I could see/feel at least a couple more right by her vent waiting to be laid yet.
Hopefully me disturbing her & getting her moving around some will have her drop the rest here today. Breaks over LOL
Within minutes she was back coiled in her hide where she laid the rest so hopefully she is completing her "mission".
She had a crappy prelay shed here a couple weeks ago (for the first time ever, thus what you can see in the pics), but I didn't want to disturb her too much being gravid & other than some misting left her be to deal with it later.
This is her first clutch & the first season she was tried BTW, no longer a virgin. THX Mark

Man, Mark, I really wish you lived in the US or I lived in Canada--my DH loves the diamonds, and I'd love to get him one, but I haven't been able to find a good breeder so far. *sigh*

That's a beautiful clutch--keep us posted on the hatching!

Mark, you need to move to the USA, so I can become your best diamond customer. I want a pair of them soooo badly!

Re: Found some more Diamond eggs in the "closet" today

These ones started pippng today on day #47, 1 day earlier than clutch #1
So they should be done hatching by the weekend instead of on the weekend as I had predicted earlier, Mark

You're only a few hours from the montana border! Just take some orders from Americans (like me!), and sneak across the border to a UPS store!
