I'm on my way to work and she's dropped 2 eggs.
Should I come back at lunch or can I wait 11 hrs?

depends on what you do for a living I guess, I would be taking photos and then removing them, once she locks up on them she wont like letting go and you risk the obvious. I just noted the time so good luck on whatever you did!

Thanks for your response.
When I got home she was NOT with the eggs. The eggs were barely sticking to each other. They were twice the size of last year, about half the size of your palm. I forgot to weigh them.
I candled one of them and it did look viable. All the eggs look good. They have a soft rubbery-wet feel.

Man I hope it works out this year

This was taken at 530am on my way to work. Only 2 eggs out. When I got home she was not around the eggs.
She laid 13 eggs total.
