How many Eggs will I get???

Blake May 26, 2003 06:19 PM

I am waiting on my 4 year old Burm to lay eggs this year and was wondering how many I should expect from her. My girl is around 12' and about 50 lbs. She layed 28 eggs last year at around 10' and 30 lbs. Thanks for any insight.

I would expect 35 to 45, but it's so hard to predect with any certainty. There are more factors than just size, age, and which clutch it is that can play a role in determining the number of eggs produced and then the number that are successfully fertilized. But if all goes right you should get around 40.
