I know that 30 days is the general rule of thumb, but what is the longest amount of time yours has gone before she dropped them? Im getting a little worried with her being almost a week late.

I moved with gravid females last year and all of the animals that were gravid during the move laid late. I had females drop as late as 41 days after POS. I'm guessing it was caused by the move since all my females usually drop 30 - 32 days POS.

Don't worry... she'll drop.

I had a ghost female lay her eggs at 47 days past her prelay last year. It was the longest 17 extra days I've ever had. I also got a clutch today that was 38 days past the prelay.
