Wow, nothing?
My record keeping on breeding definitely needs to be improved and this is the year for it.
In past years the pairs had been kept together over the winter so that is why I don't know the exact time between mating and when the eggs were laid. Didn't seem important at the time till I saw the merit in timing the laying for when I was not away from home.
I've been all through my reptile library and googled the question but it would seem to be a hard one to get an answer on.
So I'm sure someone has thier own observations as to how long from mating to laying. New and old world rats what can you tell me. Either way I'm going to record the dates that the pairs are put together and any event that follows this year.
Any input anyone can give on this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Mike.
