I had a girl that went 38 days (9 eggs) a year and a half ago, and the same girl just laid again at 42 days (8eggs) after the shed. all the others have ranged 26-31 days. Just give her time

This seems to come up every year! The times, days and dates that we read in books and the internet, MOST of the time, are mainly GUIDELINES! Someone on here recently joked: "My snake evidently didn't read the same article I did"
