Here is a picture of what my girl is doing right now. There are 4 eggs so far. Wish me luck since this is my first monitor clutch.

Around 10pm she layed her 6th egg. They are all bright white.

Congrats Ed! Good thing those eggs came out alright. Doesnt seem as if the nesting options were to well. Great job none the less! How long was it that she layed after copulation ceased?

It was 7 weeks and 2 days since I witnessed copulation. She seemed to have lost so much weight that I thought she had laid and the male had eaten the eggs. I even took out the nest box last week. I hope I haven't messed the eggs up by being stupid. If I have, at least I have more knowledge for next time.
