Still waiting on this girl. I hope she drops soon and quits looking so uncomfortable

Hey Sean, she's looking good, did you record a shed after January? If so I could give you an estimated due date??

Thanks for the offer Dave but unfortunately I do not have a recorded shed after about January.

I thought she took back in the end of December but given the fact she still hasn't popped I'm guessing it may have been later. I also had a brief period where there was a hardware problem so she was on reduced heat. It was still in the low 70's or so but without the added warmth of the hot spot. I'm not sure how much that will affect the duration of gestation.

Definitely looking forward to my first litter/clutch (what is the correct term lol) of BRB's. not to mention seeing everyone elses babies this year. Those who have already posted pics have me itching for my own

Sean.

Ah well, a POS at end of January would be due right now. Without, it's just a guessing game. And yeah, lower temps will lengthen the time required for proper gestation.

All you can do is watch pace and watch some more.

I believe technically speaking it can be either term since clutch refers to eggs and litter refers to live babies, it's actually both although probably more a clutch that "hatches" right away.

Wow... she does look fat! Hopefully she's cooking a nice big litter for you!

Thanks Aubrey

Keeping my fingers crossed. Got the baby rack all ready to go as soon as she decides it's time.
