Hello,
I've not posted on this forum before, but I've recently acquired a pair of Lystrophis pulcher and it seems my female has just had her pre-lay shed.
I was hoping that one of you might be able to give me an average time between the pre-lay shed and actual oviposition? I suspect it's somewhere between seven and fourteen days, but I'm not entirely sure. If someone could help me out I'd be very appreciative.
