Hi again, you don't need a lite when they are close to laying. As I mentioned they fat in the skin depletes and you can indeed "see" the ovum.
Like with most things, you will need some experience.
Every varanid I have worked with including prasinus has a range of time in which they can lay eggs, In most cases, we have poor nesting options and they hold the eggs as long as they can.
As I mentioned, those with experience use the 30 day period as a maximum. Of course you can recieve good eggs after that period, it is somewhat temperature dependant, But its a good number, normally after that period, hatch rates drop like a stone.
No offense but the problem with what you read is, you need to research what is written. In most cases, you will not find a good history. People like to write. They don't really require a lot of experience to write something.
