Hi there,
The average is about 30 days but I had a friend's ball go 45 days. Alot depends on the individual animal and the temps at which it has been kept.
How do you know the shed was a pre-lay shed?
Good luck!
Christy
I observed ovulation prior to shed.
How long after ovulation did she shed? It should be around 50 days after ovulation when the eggs are laid.
