on the 8th I noticed an egg in Sissy's enclosure. As I have only had her for 1 1/2 and she is around 20 yrs...that is what the person whom I got her said, this is the first time she has layed and egg. Well further checking noticed 7 more carefully deposited into the ground by her House in the enclosure. I am curious to find out if these eggs could be fertile or be like my friend Kelly says, she just went through an egg cycle, because she was in close proximity of a male.
The only thing I have close to be a mate for her is my 10 yr old Columbian, but they have been kept seperate. But are housed side by side. Cinder blocks stacked 4 tall seperate them, so I know there was no hanky panky going on. The previous owner was housing her at a friends, who she was with male RFs. It just seems like 1 1/2 years is a long time to store sperm and then go through gestation.
So, is it possible for these eggs to be fertile? What is the normal hatching time for YFs? Thanks in advance for answers
