Accurate gestation times and litter size

Folks,
As part of a study being undertaken by a graduate student in my department, I am looking for accurate data on gestation time (either ovulation to parturition, or POS to parturition), and also litter size, including still borns and slugs.

I don't care if its one litter or 1000. If you have accurate date, we would love to get it. Also, we need to know which species it is from.
If anything comes of it that is worth publishing, your contribution will be fully acknowledged.

You can PM me or post directly to here. If you have larger datasets (excel spreadsheets for example) PM me and I will pass on my email address.

Thank you,

Warren

And as I said in the Sand Boa one, happy to see this being studied, too. I recently acquired a pair of Limburg Albinos and was surprised to not find more detailed information about their gestation.
