I'm not one of the experts! Of the two females gravid this year
1 has given me eggs two years in a row,completing oviposition
both years in a couple of hours with no problems. I waited until
she was 5 years old almost 6 feet and probably around 10lbs but
this is only a guess. The other female was 5 years old a little
over 5 feet and again around 10lbs. She became egg bound and after 72 hours I was lucky to find a competent vet to do the
surgery. That was 2 months ago and she is doing great! I feed
her heavy id say. No way in the wild would she have been able to
eat all that chow without alot of work on her part. I'm not going
to push the others the same way. Whats my Hurry? Ask me again in another 2 or 3 years when I have a little more experience!

Thanks
Seth
