I did not have time to read your post closely but wanted to give a quick reply. I have produced several clutches of fertile Gonyosoma eggs although have had many unfortunate events that prevented any of the eggs from hatching. Most notably a basement flood, but I digress.



Female Gonyosoma have always been very obviously gravid to my eye. I have never been surprised by a clutch of eggs. From my quick read of your post I suspect yours is gravid.



I will also note that they can take a very long time from shedding to ovoposition. I lost my notes in that basement flood but I think it once took at least seven weeks.



It's also every obvious when they lay their eggs. I found my first Gony clutch when I saw a very skinny female perched in her cage one day. The previous day she was looking quite plump despite not eating consistently for many weeks.



If you do get fertile eggs please, please incubate them on the cool side. I got this advice from some Europeans and have passed it on to several Gony keepers. All have had much better sucess with hatching since cooling their incubators down to 78* or so.
