>>Im totally confused. Usually I would say that from mating to egg laying that it would take about 40 days with Western hogs?

Kinda sounds like you waited too long to put the male with the female and she had already ovulated hence why the eggs were not fertile - they may have been too far along before she mated with the male. If she lays a second clutch, they stand a better chance of being fertile from that mating.
