We're going round in circles

I use "full nesting".
My numbers don't match the numbers that FR states nor yours.
I'm not seeing the things you refer to.
I'm happy with my results so far.
My girls are averaging a week after shed to lay.
Most are just curled up till the 24 hours they 'choose' to lay.
The only girl who had an egg stuck this year was the quickest to lay. The egg was not particularly large and had no visible veins.
Her clutch was very inconsistent in size unlike most of my girls.

I still believe there are other physiological factors affecting them.
I also think hogs are extremely varied psychologically, as we see in their varied feeding responses.
As I mentioned to you, I am done feeding my boas in 5 minutes because they nearly all behave the same.
Hognose have the most diverse personality of any reptile I've kept and I think it's overly simplistic to view the egg laying within that 10 day period of nesting.
I think the several months prior to egg laying all affect the big day more than we know.

PEACE BRO !!
