Well its been 1month and 1 day since her last lay and like last time its raining. Why is that every time one of my females goes to lay, it starts raining.

We'll see if she stops or keeps going. If she lays I'll update with pics.
She layed 8 last time I think this time she will lay 11, so I'm putting the over/under at 11

Me too, Bob and I would love to see green grass that doesn't crunch when ya walk on it. I'll bet it's the rain that makes her start laying, not the other way around...

She is gorgeous! One of the smoothest I've seen that size, of course it's too easy for you over there.

Green grass. It should be, its been raining here every night, but days are sunny.
Aldabraman / Maggie. My experience (because we get soo much rain this time of year 100+ inches) has been that they will lay around the rain, like a day after a good rain, but if it rains hard, and it can rain really hard here, they will stop. Tonight was a 4 on the rain scale a quarter to a half inch fell durring her dig.

Tom, its hard for me to keep track and this year will be no different. I think I will get 200+ babcocki eggs this year. Its kinda funny, the rest of the country is burried under snow and people have got their eggs for the season, but over here we are just starting.

Neil, thanks and your right it is easy. See my pics. Lets hear again "wheres the best place to raise torts"? LOL, just joking, just joking

zzzdanz, you were off by 8, she layed 17, but you would still have one the "over" in Vegas?
